Hi Gary, SCC again I suspect, other than that I feel pretty good.

PET/CT scheduled Tuesday, so that's good, MRI I guess I'll have to hunt a place to see if there's one free earlier. Not an insurance issue, more a machine availability issue from what I gather. Guess this is one of the few machines between LA and SF, so booked pretty solid. Haven't really gotten a good reason for the long lead time on the MRI.

At this point just want to know where we stand on all this, how bad, etc.


SCC Tongue, stage IV diagnosed Sept, 2002, 1st radical neck dissection left side in Sept, followed by RAD/Chemo. Discovered spread to right side nodes March 2003, second radical neck dissection April, followed by more RAD/Chemo.
