Hello everyone, My name is Andy and I too am newly diagnosed with SCC. I went to the Dr with 1 enlarged lymph node, and instead of doing a biopsy, they removed it. Well, that came back positive with SCC and now later this week, they are going back in to do a tongue base and back of throat biopsy to try to find the primary. At the same time they are doing the biopsy, they are going to insert a peg tube before I start the chemo and radiation therapy they have for me. I am actually hoping that they can find a primary source somewhere. I have had both an MRI and Pet/CT scan, that the Dr said showed a small blip in the tongue base. Just turned 38 3 days ago, and have never smoked. Even the Dr's found that weird.
