Hi Meg,

I had tonsil cancer. It was a stage 4 and invasive. I had a sore throat that wouldn't go away. At the point it started to effect my eating I went to the doctor. This was in a 7 month span. On the thrid visit to my reguler GP she referred me to an Oral Surgeon. If you want any details please feel free to email them to me. I will gladly answer any question on Head & neck Cancer I know.
