I found mine by finding a lump on my shoulder. A CT scan indicated cancer at the base of my tongue. A biopsy said it was negative. Fortunately my ENT needle biopsied my shoulder lump and it came back positive. He asked for a review of the throat biopsy and this time it came back positive. I was fortunate in that the first chemo made the shoulder lump disappear and after the second my oncologist said wait two weeks and go back to the ENT for a check. He could see no cancer and that everything looked normal. I am continuing visits every few months to my oncologist and pray everything continues positively.
