Hi all. I am two years and three months out from my partial glossectomy and right neck dissection. I have kept all of my appointments and have had no recurrences. So as my night shift was ending at work, I happened to have my right hand over my neck area and I felt "something." I have not been examining my neck and mouth like a crazy person for a couple of years now. I just happened to feel this little hard thing. My oncologist works in one of the buildings at the hospital I work at. I was lucky he was able to check me right away. He and the resident both said "it isn't anything concerning at this point." and "we'll keep an eye on it, but it feels like a reactive node." I passed the two year mark and I guess I was feeling like I was "home free." I have so many good things planned and now it's all looking dreary. Cancer sucks. This ongoing uncertainty I guess is just something that has to be lived with.
