I found all my recurrences in the cervical neck. I would just feel something strange, wake up at night and go right to the lump for some reason, which all tuned out to be cancerous, on FNAB, pathology, PET, resulting in surgery, rads or chemo radiation Right before I was have one SND, and was in preop felt another enlarged nodule, told surgeon I have another lump. You should have seem his eyes. , ENT was not sure to take out, and decided last minute before putting me under, decided to take it out too. under to take it. a already had a radical neck dissection, so there was not much left. It was cancer too, but free form or roaming cancer, not the lymph nodes, a month late, felt spot told new doc to, turns out cancer was in the skin, epithetical lining under skin, showed CT and was had a special surgery, IORT radiation, and pec flap. More chemo and rads six weeks later. Most cancers are found by the patient.
