Just been for check up still not happy with the check they thought might be healing at 3 month check. PET scan now so worried anyone else been down this path. I feel so well apart from dry mouth and thrush was not what i expected today
I had a hot spot at 16 weeks it wasn’t cancer.
We all heal at different rates. Did your consultant say he was worried?

No he said 2 to 4 week for scan . I asked about treatment and he said to soon to discuss . I'm 24 weeks post treatment surely healed by now
Hi again. I’ve looked back through your posts. You said there abnormal cells found but the original site was clear?
I think maybe you should contact your CNS to clarify what’s going on and get a proper explanation.
I was reducing morphine at 12 weeks and managed to eat a steak albeit tasteless
By six months my mouth and throat had healed.
