Hi, my name is Lee and I live in a town called Manchester in the United Kingdom.

I was diagnosed in June 2006 with primary Right tonsil cancer that had spread to 5 of my right neck lymph nodes. I underwent neck resection, 20 radiotherapy sessions and two 24 hour courses of chemo. I am well on the way to recovery, but like most, I am still struggling with a dry mouth. I remain on morphine patches albeit on a very low dose. It has been a real struggle for me and my family, but hopefully I have now beat this awful disease. It is very encouraging to read the threads and to discover other peoples experiences. I am awaiting the results later in the week of a recent MRI scan, so keeping my fingers crossed. Regards
