In our case, they watch them, but rarely are they cancer, so I'm told. And, six months later, post-treatment, mine were nothing to be concerned about.
Randy, Stage 3 tonsil SCC, node involvement, HPV-positive. 7 sessions of Taxol-Carboplatin, 35 rads finished 9/8/10. Post-TX PET and CT 12/1 showed "no metabolic evidence of residual or recurrent disease." Yay!
