Hello,
I'm StevenS, new to this site and new to cancer. In July this year, I was diagnosed with cancer of the Oropharynx (left tonsil) affecting two nodes in my left neck. T1N2bmo, Stage 4. I just finished both chemo and radiation (9/24/13) and now I wait for results of my first PET scan as my body recovers from TX. I'm very happy this site exists as I try and weave my way through this. Thank you!
