Marie, I also have MEC. My biopsy came back on 7/5/02 and as I had already had the MRI prior to my biopsy I was sent for CT scan and chest x-rays before they set my surgery date of 7/30.. my mass was just under 2cm and ran down the right side of my soft palate from just where the hard & soft meet to the right tonsular area. I am going to send you an email to let you know how things went as my story that I started typing here became WAY to long!! I will answer any questions posted if anyone else needs/wants more info!
