In late October I started radiotherpy with 35 treatments and went through it relatively well compared to a lot of other people but it was still no walk in the park, lost weight etc but I feel really good now.I had a CT scan 1 week ago and the report came back with a suspicious thickening behind the tongue and next monday I go into hospital for the day and my specialist will use a scope and biospy will be taken.I suspect the radiation did not kill the tumour or it has spread to some other part of my throat, I asked my specialist what was next if it did not kill the tumour he said most likely more radiation and probably chemo this time.A bit nervous and worried but will post outcome of biospy next weekRegards Tony tonyva Mon, 14 Apr 2008 00:00:00 GMT  Hi tony, im sorry that your going through all of this. try and be strong! i know i am. please keep us updated with everything  Rachel88 Wed, 30 Apr 2008 00:00:00 GMT Thanks for message My results were OK, signs of dysplasiaRegardsTony tonyva Wed, 30 Apr 2008 00:00:00 GMT
