After 3 different drs felt the lump and a couple of days of wondering, I finally got the final results from the radiologist.
IMPRESSION: 1. Treatment changes related to right oropharyngectomy and mandibulectomy with flap reconstruction and no evidence of local disease progression/recurrence. 2. No evidence of new cervical lymphadenopathy to suggest nodal recurrence.
WHOOOHOOOO!!!! I'm on cloud 9! Off to change my signature line!
