Hi everyone hope your all doing well haven’t been on here for some time, so I had my 3 month scan today wasn’t really the result we wanted but still hoping it’s ok, the pet scan came back with hot spot at primary sight they put camera down and it was showing a white patch the doctor said it could still be inflamed from the radiotherapy so the are doing a MRI tomorrow and the team will discuss and maybe another biopsy, I’m really nervous now about the treatment hasn’t worked absolutely crapping it to be honest, I’m just hoping it’s inflamed, will keep you all updated

Hi Hazel I’m trying to remain positive but as you can imagine it’s bloody hard at the moment I’m not a happy bunny I would of thought the biopsy would of determined the outcome
Kenny. I had a hot spot at the base of my tongue at the cancer site that the PET picked up. I had a biopsy and there was no cancer. My dentist looks at the site every time I go to see him and says he’s not sure about the scar tissue. He drives me nuts. I tell him not to look. I think the doctor you latterly saw is just not familiar with what the back of your throat looks like now.
