Hello Fran,

Of all the treatments I've had, Surgery, radiation and chemo the neck disection was the least painful after one or two days.

I also have experienced a reoccurance in June of 04. Thats when I started chemo. one day a week for three weeks followed by one week off. I had scans in Dec 04 and the cancer didn't show up in the lungs at all. This after scans in June 04 showed multiple areas of concern in the lungs. The cancer in the original area (tonsil) was termed stable. It's a new life after this experience. The biggest challange is adapting to it.

I hope your treatment is successful and you have a quick recovery. You can win this battle. Were all here pulling for you. Please keep us posted and good luck on the 5th.
