My husband finished treatment for stage IV ssc of right tonsil on July 21,2000. He was treated at MD Anderson cancer Center in Houston TX. After treatment, he went back every three months for the first year and a half. Each time they did blood work, CT of head and neck and chest xray. After the first year and a half was up, we have been going back every six months for the same tests. Were told when we go back in July, our three year anniversary, yeah!, we will be put on yearly schedule.
Hope this helps.
Julie
