Hello
New to all this! Diagnosed three weeks ago and have my operation on the 30th.!
anyone out there had this operation and what were your experiences if you don’t mind.
did you get a big scar?
sorry for all the questions!
Hi Amanda
sorry you find yourself with cancer and in this forum.
I had a quick glance at your details and no wonder you are anxious.
If you put parotid gland cancer in the group search at the top there are a few recent posts.
It’s good news that it’s been caught early
I wish you well and hope your recovery is speedy
Do post back as you have more questions and good luck
