My husband's results showed a suspect spot in the original area where the tonsil [font:Comic Sans MS] was surgically removed, treated with cisplatin, and 36 days of radiation. His last radiation tx was 10/8 and he has an MRI this weekend scheduled. How concerned should he/we be on this. He is still in fairly acute pain and the Dr. seems to believe there is a 30-50% chance he is still healing and that this result is not too alarming. Any feedback?[/font]


Husband-diagnosed shortly after his 50TH Birthday celebration-Stage 3 SCC, T3N1M0, R tonsil, radical neck disection 6/25/2008, 1 positive node, cisplatin x2, and radiation (36), completed therapy 10/8/2008. Non-smoker, occasional drinker, all around GREAT guy!
