Cancer in the Piri-fossa

Hi Alfienangel 

This is Hypopharyngeal cancer. 
I’ll do a search for you 

Personally, I have  a friend three years clear of this. 
MikeO, one of our community champs had this too. He has a blog you could check out.

Ah… sorry Alfienangel 

Having done a search for you, you know this already. 
At least you can have a look at mikes blog 

We are a small select group Alfienangel, I was initially diagnosed more than a decade ago now, and I'm still very much alive and kicking! Been some bumps on the way mind, but that was just me drawing the short straw.

Be happy to chat whenever you feel the need.

Hello Mike.  I'm now 12 months post treatment. I had 35 factions of RT nbilaterally because it had crossed the mid line and 6 chemo with cisplatine. I'm now 12 months post treatment. I have no salivary glands, very little taste and cannot really eat, I am on a pump. I recently underwent a Cricophangeal Myotoma which hasn't really helped. I haven't eaten anything much for 14 months. I am having a further Fluroscopy this week.  What I would be very interested to know is she have had anythingb similar and the outcome???? I still have this awful muck that I can't shift,. People keep telling me 'you're looking at 2 years' it will get better' it is better but a long way off normal. I know normal won't happen but I need to be able to eat and taste!!!!!!  I wish somebody had warned me about the potential effects.  There are days when I just feel like giving up really, I'm finding it all very hard.  An6badvise?????    X

Thanks
