Hi Woody and everyone. THis is my first time here as well. My huband was diagnosed with Stage IVa cancer of his tonsil with two lymph nodes in July of 09. He had 39 Radiation Treatments as well as Chemo with a neck disection in January 2010. He went back to work in April and felt great. A couple of months ago, he developed and ulcer in the back of his throat. HE had a surgical Biopsy done yesterday and we are supposed to get the results tomorrow. The doctor seemed pretty certain that this is cancer. It's on his tonsil again and on the base of the tongue. We are both pretty freaked out about this. His doctor told me (not him yet) that the opening of his mouth is so small that she may have to crack the jaw in order to get in there. Anyone know anything about this???
