Carcinoma in situ vocal cord

Hi there. For some reason your message doesn’t appear to showing, at least not for me. It might be worth reposting it. All the best. 

It must be you Mark. I can see it 

Hi Gladstone and welcome to our community. There are a few people here who have had laryngeal radiotherapy and I’m sure they will pop on to help you. Meanwhile if you go to the search button at the top right hand if the page and enter larynx a whole load of posts will pop up. If you scroll to the bottom and go to advanced to choose the last year you have a view of the more recent ones. 

Probably my iPad playing up. I can see it now. 

Hi Gladstone, Have the Medical Team given you all the options and risks/damage, what stage is the cancer at first?, it sounds like a growth was on one of your vocal chords and they thought it would resolve it.

I have had a Laryngectomy, at the time I thought no way and it is a big step, but you would not be without a voice as you think, I had mine in August and in November I was back at work with a voice- I need a voice as I work for the Citizens Advice. Make sure you get the pros and cons of the therapy treatments prior to an operation as the RT can distroy so much tissue that the operation may notbe as successful as they would like-too much rebuild of the throat. If you wre to have the Laryngectomy they will offer RT after teh op-be careful I questioned very well and opte out as the damage that can do after is nearly sometimes as before. Had a check up today and they are quite happy with me and cannot get over the strength of my voice

Just keep asking the  questions !
