Anita, I have a continuing problem with occasional thrush-like symptoms. I say that because there are no visable signs, only irritation. (which can be quite severe). Nystatin works every time. two days of swish and no more problem. This is still happening 4 plus years out. About once a month for me.


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.
