Temple and jaw pain and ringing in left ear

Going through breast cancer treatment Radiotherapy
1

Hi All

 

i am on my 5th day of radiotherapy for left sided breast cancer. Over the weekend and tonight I have had temple and jaw pain on the left hand side and ringing in my left ear. I am also taking letrozole and monthly zoladex. 

 

Can any tell me if this is the side effects of radiotherapy? My jaw feels heavy, but thinking it may be because I have to hold a tub in my mouth whilst having radiotherapy for breathing techniques x

Hi there,

 

can i suggest you ask one of the nurses on here,  for peace of mind.  Good luck ?

Hi Sunflower,

How are you now? Half way through! Were your pains and ringing sounds to do with the breath holding tub you had to hold in your mouth? 

Hope you are looking after yourself.

take care
