Hi Dani
Dont know if u remember me we spoke about ten months ago i had cancer on my larynx.
Have signed up for the course as i have lymphodema at the moment and am starting a neck massaging course next week in singelton i remember u had your treatment there too im from Swansea.
I see your still giving people advice and helping people on here as you did with me when i was diagnosed im still in the system at mo but im getting there had some great advice from Mike O yesterday which really helped me.
Many thanks for the link i was chuffed when i noticed the docs are fron Wales.
All the best.

Hi Chris. Lovely to hear from you. When I was discharged from treatment at the singleton I was offered an appointment at a lymphodema clinic. It might be worth phoning your CNS to see if they are still running it.

Hang on in there Chris. I was at The Morriston today collecting my husband from cardiology. I'm on 6 months now. One more Maxfac and two oncology and I'm done.

Amazing you only have a few appointments left good for you.
And you will too.
My first husband had a laryngectomy after radiotherapy. He recovered really well

Update on this. There wasn’t much on head and neck but the dedication and attention to detail of this team was inspiring. I’m glad I watched it anyway.
