They said the same things you told to repeat antibiotics, but for now, no infection or leaking so no antibiotics, they will do CT scan to check the bone health.

Just wanted to update the group that they did CT scan in Feb 2024 and they found that the plate dropped a little bit into my mouth, only option was to remove the plate through surgery. I completed radiation in Sep 2023, they had to wait 6 months after radiation. Did MRI in Apr 2024, no tumor growth. Finally got the plate removed in May, the bone is healthy and fused, so no biopsy done during surgery. It's been 6 weeks since I got the plate removed and next MRI scheduled for Oct 2024 to monitor the tumor. Working on mouth opening exercises, still around 15mm opening.
