I'm new to this site. My husband was treated for SCC 2 yrs. ago. Had chemo, radiation (6 wks.) & surgery. So far so good. He goes for scans every 3 months but now it will be every 6 months. Unfortunately, he was just diagnosed with an acoustic neuroma (4mm) as he was having hearing problems. We are thankful that it was found while it is still small and we have time to consider options.
I am reading about the walk in Chicago and wonder when and where it will be held. We are from Schaumbug, IL.
Thanks for all the info here.

Dx 06/2004 - SCC of left tonsil - resection of growth on neck, 6 weeks IMRT, 4 treatments chemo (Cisplatin).
