Does anyone know how long it takes for pain at the rear of the head and a numb tongue to decline?

For me it was 3 weeks for noticeable difference, getting better all the time in that period. But, I'm still more susceptible to headaches at this point (end week 4).

Thanks that's good to hear, hope that you are well on the mend. its only been 15 days for me I suppose that I'm a little impatient and should be thankful to my progress so far. It would seem that night time is worse the hot water bottle is working overtime and plently of pain relief. Seem to be getting a lot of flickering on my face though I think that this will be the nerves regenerating.
