Well I will add that I hope the CT scan is all clear. I like your web site and classic picture there. Plus nice of you to bump up Nate's u-tube videos. Keep on documenting your success story. We need more of them Charm

I just had my first 3 month after treatment CT scan two weeks ago and it showed lesions on my tonsils. I now have to wait until end 21st of Jan for a PET scan and another CT in Feb to compare results and see if the lesions improve. I'm praying for both you and me for negative results. Keep us posted.

Dr doesn't think its anything but better safe than sorry. Of course for me this was the same thinking before it was said I had cancer, so I don't take anything lightly.
I will report back early next month. | | | | Joined: Apr 2010 Posts: 44 Contributing Member (25+ posts) | OP Contributing Member (25+ posts) Joined: Apr 2010 Posts: 44 | | | | | Joined: Jan 2009 Posts: 476 Platinum Member (300+ posts) | Platinum Member (300+ posts) Joined: Jan 2009 Posts: 476 | [quote=E-Dog]All clear [/quote]
