Oral cancer inside cheek, Stage 2. 30 sessions RT in Jan/Feb. Final scans showed area of doubt. Another two biopsies and much fear and worry by me, supported by the pals on here. It so, so, helps to know folks understand.
Well, today was the day and I was prepared (I think!!) for the worst but it was the best!!!. No sign of cancer in the biopsies. As folks have suggested, it was likely scar tissue that had yet to settle down. He admitted he had dug deep with the biopsies so that is why I am still so sore after nearly 3 weeks, but hey, a bit of pain is nothing to me now. Funny how you see things differently after good news.
I will have another scan in 3 months, he said no point any sooner. As several on here have said, sometimes they do them too soon.
And even more good news my younger daughter is expecting a baby. After several years of trying the third round of IVF has worked. This must be the best week of my life.
I hope for many more - and wish the same for all of you.
