Just back from the doc and A's tongue and tonsils are clear,he still has some swelling on his LHS sliva gland and he will have a pet scan in two weeks nad he is HPV 16 positive ,I dont think we could have got better news.A is a bit tired ,but he is back at work but not doing full days ,he is on his bike,out with the boys on friday which he did all through his treatment.
A can eat most things except spicy food as it burns his tongue and he could tast my laslana !.I hope this will help others who are going into treatment or are inthe middle of it.Hopefully he will come to the site and let you know his side of the story .I will let you know who is is doing in the coming weeks.
seana
P.S HE seems to be getting back to himself emotioanly too.
Thank You all for your help
