Hello everyone,
I've been reading and posting on this site since I found out that I had base of tongue cancer in the Spring 2008. It has been a great source of knowledge and comfort to me.
I had radiation for BOT which ended in late May. Went it without a peg but was always able to swallow, thank goodness. I believe in general I'm doing ok without any really big problems. The small ones I was able to tackle with the help of this site and the treatment center. I still have a long wasy to go but am hopeful that my PET will be clear.
Question---Do you continue to have a feeling of a small ball, lump, stone (best way I can describe it) where your tumor was? I do the gargle with baking soda/salt, Biotene many times a day. But this feeling that there is SOMETHING caught in the area of the tumor continues.
I was checked by my oncologist, and have an appoitment wih my ENT in two weeks. The oncologist could not see anything and told me not to worry. But it feels so strange and of course worrisome.
Any help would be greatly apprectiated. Best, D.
