Hi so I’ve now got my operation date for sept 22nd. Im
being admitted the night before. I’m going to Coventry hospital which is a centre of excellence for this type of surgery so should be in good hands. Proposed surgery is removal of around 4cms of my tongue with a neck dissection, likely reconstruction from forearm and possible removal of some teeth. I will update you when I feel up to it. Likely to be an all day event not that I’ll be any the wiser.
