Hi.....My husband had tonsil cancer in 7/2001,radical neck dissection, Chemo and Rad.
He goes to the Dr every other month and just had a chest CT scan 2 days ago. This nurse who was putting in his IV asked about his cancer and said
"Has it come back yet?" ...Dan thought maybe she thought his CT scan was because of a recurrence, but then it started to bother him. Does it ALWAYS come back??? Sooner or later? Are the odds of a second primary or metastisis higher?
Then after the scan a different tech or dr came out to take out his IV and asked how he has been feeling. This starting to make him nervous. The man asked about his cancer and treatments. Dan said they didnt' ask all these questions with his last scan. Is Dan reading too much into these comments?? He will find the results on Monday.
Thanks.
