A little over a year ago I was dianosed with non-hodgekins lymphoma early stage one. After chemo and rad it was gone and has been gone. 4 months ago I was dianosed with stage 4 SCC with a tumor at the base of my tongue. I'm 2 out months from rad, my mouth is still sore, I'm still using the feeding tube and my taste is out of whack. I feel down, but alot of that has to do with this Michigan winter. I have a millions questions and I am so glad I found someplace to ask them. I'm glad I can ask some real folks, the Docs at U of M Hosp. are great, but they sometimes are hard to pin down on things. Is there some SCC surviviors with more time than me to ive me an idea when the mouths heal? Does taste come back? Any other things I should know?
