Many of us that have had a cancer diagnosis, had no symptoms at all. I agree with Brian in that you should seek other opinions about your symptoms but do not fear the worst. None of us here are able at a distance nor qualified to say what it is you are having problems with. Follow through with at least several opinions about your symptoms. Let us know how it comes out.
Mark, 21 Year survivor, SCC right tonsil, 3 nodes positive, one with extra-capsular spread. I never asked what stage (would have scared me anyway) Right side tonsillectomy, radical neck dissection right side, maximum radiation to both sides, no chemo, no PEG, age 40 when diagnosed.
