Hi,

I've just been told I have sinus, nasal cancer that's touching the skull.  This was diagnosed from ct scan and MRI, long wait, months later just waiting for a biopsy appointment. I'm under priority urgent but still a 3 week wait and I'm very up and down.

Does anyone know anything about cancer in this location

  • Hi and a very warm welcome to the online community

    I'm very sorry to read that you have recently been diagnosed with nasal cancer. Although I didn't have the same type of cancer as you, I can remember only too clearly how numb I felt when given the news.

    I can see that you've already found and joined the head and neck cancer group and I'm sure if you post there you'll find great support from others who know how you feel. Clicking on the link I've created will take you straight to the group where you can introduce yourself and post questions after selecting '+New' or '+' (depending on the device you're using) and join in with existing conversations by clicking on 'reply'. 

    When you have a minute, it would be really useful if you could pop something about your journey so far into your profile as it really helps others when answering or looking for someone with a similar diagnosis. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.
