Hello,

9 Weeks ago I found a large lump on my neck. It showed up overnight. Went to the Doctor and was given Zpak. Did nothing. 2 week later went to different doctor, She gave me another antibotic. Did nothing. Finial my thrid Doctor sent me to the ENT.

ENT did CT scan with contrass Showed nothing. Did a FNA biopsy inconclusive. Sceduled surgery for 8/25. Got my results today. Stage 3 SCC with unknown primary.

Horrible news. Age 43 2 kids 13 and 15 and a wonderful wife.

PET scheduled 9/5 Another surgery 9/12.
