Hello ChristineB,
Thank you for taking the time to write; I was pleasantly surprised!
I’m being treated at Princess Margaret Cancer Centre in Toronto. PMC is world class (or so they say) and seems to have a stellar team for head and neck and a survivorship program that includes every possible support.
My surgery was 3 weeks ago and I’m still in pain both tongue and neck, but it’s getting better each day.
I’m awake in the night with itchy skin I can’t relieve. I had 15 lymph nodes removed one that was positive. My pathology report shows ckearwitj good margins so that’s good news. The oncology resident told lme yesterday however that they may have me meet with a radiation oncologyst for a consult tbd sept 7.18.
I was diagnosed July 10 and had surgery July 31.
All so fast... my mood is up and down and I’m so greatful for
Amazing medical care and the support of my family, coworkers / friends.
Thank you
