hi all, Just got back from my surgeon at James cancer hospital.My neck dissection has healed enough to start radiation and concurrent chemo.He is turning me over to radiology dr.,who I will see tommorrow.Also told me I am at stage 3 based on size of original lypmh node. I already had surmized this.I was suprised to findI still had no primary,none of the 9 biopsied areas were positive for carcinoma! I am so scared about the radiation,am thinking about not having it,but my husband Danny thinks that' crazy talk.Ha,HA! Has anyone had a simaliar experience with an occult primary? How can I know if it's gone if they can't find it now?Lol...i read this site every day!Rosie i pray for Heather every day and so does my church. I hope her progess is continued despite the pain,infections issues. thanks guys in advance, susanlaura1
