Thanks for the reply. I was trying to say radiation treatments. My surgeon can't see the tumors anymore (sticking that scope up my nose and down my throat) and says they are gone. Radiologist cannot feel anything along my throat or lymph node. They are just picking up that shadow with the CT. I am scheduled for the PET in 2 weeks ( insurance was a problem getting things approved). Dealing with Edema, anxiety, dry mouth, weight loss and depression. Reading what you and others have gone through I should consider myself lucky to this point and stop whining. Thanks again 🙂
