I was diagnosed on March 5th with Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma T1N2M0, after 2 months of going to the Dr. over an enlarged lymph node in my neck. He finally referred me to an ENT, and the bad news was delivered.

I've had one chemo treatment so far (Cisplaten), with one scheduled every 3 weeks for a total of 6 treatments, and have two weeks of radiation done with 23 more rads to come. I'm just now starting to feel the effects of the rads....a couple of mouth sores, and my throat is a little sore.

I had a PEG Tube put in right away, as I'm starting treatment at 93 lbs, and both my Oncologist and the Rad-onc felt this would be smart to not wait to see how I did before putting it in.

Just wanted to introduce myself....now I'll go back to reading .
