Hi. My pathology for left resection showed the laser didn't remove all the cancer cells and the right side showed up under narrow band imaging in theatre as abnormal so they biopsied it and it came back cis so I'm starting radiotherapy. Shell and ct today. Seeing cns head and neck Wednesday morning. Feeling positive. Worried about the pain etc. Food tastes disgusting since 28th Feb and I'm not eating much. 

  • Hi Brave and scared,

    I hope that your appointment goes ok today.

    Hopefully you will have a chance to talk through your worries about pain and not eating and that they will be able to offer some support and reassurance. 

    Let us know how you get on, In the meantime if talking things through would help, then please do give the Support Line a call. They are lovely on there.

    Jane
