Hi this is Hazel I am in the U.K. so my treatment may not be the same as yours. I too has tonsil cancer now 11 month post radiotherapy,I had no pains no sore throat no ear ache nothing. In fact I had just cycled 1100 kilometres in Spain I am 62 only symptom was a lump in the hollow above my right collar bone .long storage but 35 radiotherapy sessions and 2 cisplatin chemotherapy sessions. The treatment is rough but if I can do it anyone can, recovery for some is long but it is doable. Yesterday for my cancer hospital I cycled 60 Kilometres in the pouring rain on a charity bike ride proof that there is light at the end if the tunnel.posituve mental attitude certainly helped me get through this
Any questions just ask and good luck
Hazel
