I was dignosed with stage 3 EC in March 2012, went through treatments and had THE surgery in June. I was in to my surgeon for a scheduled throat stretch today I had asked him to check a couple lumps I had found up by the collar bone. He has done a fine needle aspiration to check for a cause. There was a look of concern on his face.

I did have a fistula leak in that area so it could just be scar tissue or possibly a localized infection. Please cross your fingers for me.

Fingers crossed here

It certainly is anxiety provoking when our doctor does not say, "Oh, that is nothing it is just....."

I assume he took a needle biopsy and there is now a wait for the results. I will certainly have my fingers crossed and hoping the results will come quickly and be nothing of concern.
