My pet scan came back without mets or lymph node involvement. I will be having a scope of the throat to rule out any possible problem. My mask was made for my radiation treatments and that was interesting. Made it through though. Thank you for all your kind words and advice. Tonsil area is still healing after 3 weeks which is concerning me. My surgery was a little more involved than the regular tonsillectomy as much tissue was removed surrounding the tonsil including part
Of the palate.
