I'm as new to cancer as I am to this forum. Can't say I'm glad to be here, but I'm glad that you all are. Had a biopsy done last Wed and yesterday found that my sore throat was due to a mass on my left tonsil. Pathology read "Tonsil mass, Invasive poorly differentiated keratinizing squamous cell carcinoma".

I'm trying to get the scans scheduled to see if it's spread, and staged, hopefully within the next week. I'm sure I will be getting to know many of you. Again, thanks for being here!
