I just had a chondrosarcoma totally removed! They said just 70 to 75% at first because it was wrapped around my cartaroid artery. I have blurred vision on the side operated on, totally numb left face, can't eat because they moved the muscle on the left also. I am different then before surgery, any idea what to expect. I feel like I am going crazy, any advise would help. They said nerves take 9 to 12 months to repair or replace. I feel useless, and applied for disabilitiy, saw judge already in tn,any ideas if it is possible to get it? I am financially broke because I haven't been able to work so I am staying with family which stinks. Any advice would be so greatly appreciated!
