Tonsil cancer treatment update

Hello Perry, my husband is now a little over a year post treatment,and he had a follow up appointment today,everything is healing fine and he's doing great,just as you are feeling now, we have been there, once we had a treatment plan and everything was in place, it got a little easier,we knew where we where going from there. Keith had a PEG fitted prior treatment, just a little uncomfortable at first, but he soon got used to it and luckily he didn't have any problems, and like so many have said,it became a lifesaver at some point. The treatment itself wasn't too bad at first, but by week 3 it started to become painful to watch him suffer. But I couldn't think about the alternative. So on this note I wish you all the best for the rest of your journey. Think positive and stay strong. It's gonna be tough,but doable. Stay on this side, there is always someone here to listen and support.    Fellow wife Mel x

Once you get into the routine it will be a little less daunting...any questions just fire away...always someone around.

Thankyou 

My treatment starts on 16th too 

6 x chemo

30 times radio 

My peg will be fitted as treatment progresses. 

Your face cage will be made after swelling from extraction goes down. 

I found it  a really nice feeling with being warm 

We can journey together

Good  luck with your treatment  I hope it all goes well. I've got my mould fitting  Thursday and orthodontist  does know this so maybe they are not worried  about swelling or maybe they will change my appointment i will just have to wait and see..Where are you having your treatment may I ask?.I'm making the most of my food at the moment  how about  you.

 Mines in Glan Clwyd N wales

Yes over eating 

Pizza kebabs

Chips lol

In Fact anything I can think will be missed as time goes on

Hi Michael  did you use any mouthwash  whilst having the radiotherapy or special toothpaste 

  Your dentist will supply at either extraction or check up m8

Thankyou.
