It lit up on his 3 month post treatment PET, so it was removed in a Modified neck dissection. Pathology showed this to just be a necrotic node with dead SCC cells. I would be reassured that this Lymph node is declining in size. Glad your team will continue to keep an eye on it and you. Enjoy the Festive Season. Tammy
