Results from my PET scan say my SSC has not spread to any major organs and the MRI seems to have pin pointed that the primary is my tonsils I'm going in Wednesday for a pre op, I should have asked questions but I didn't, I've got the lump in my lymph node level 3 and this is how it started, im supposedly going in for tonsils biopsy does anyone know why they not just gonna whip my tonsils out and the lymph node now they know, why a biopsy ? Does it mean I'll have another op ? Mandy
