I got the results of the PET scan back this morning. The cancer has come back in my tounge and one lymph node. I see the radioligest tommorrow afternoon to develop the treatment plan. Chemotherpy will also be used with surgery as a last resort because of the location of the tumor. If you have had surgery to remove a tumor and you start having pain almost like an earachae or your tounge starts hurting have it checked out fast. More later.
Recurrence tounge SCC, stage IV, 35 IMRT Radiation and Chemo. Pet scan 10/7/05 results were clean. mac
