in Head and Neck Cancer #1
Hello and I hope all is well with the group.

Yesterday I had a follow up chest CT to compare a CT that was taken last December when some type of mass that they assumed was either scar tissue from radiation or inflamed tissue. I am happy to report that it must have been inflamed tissue as there was nothing visible on the CT this time. I also had a CT of my neck with contrast and that also came back clean.

This puts me one week away from being NED for 8 months and Sunday was also my one year anniversary when I discovered the golf ball sized lump in my neck that put me on this roller coaster.

I want to thank all of my pals here on CSN that played a pivital role in my recovery.

Best!!

Mike

    Mike,

    Bro', you made my day! (plus brought me out of my lurking mode). Congrats! And this definitely calls for a day out to celebrate. Who wants to join Mike and I out for a lunch in St. Louis? - my treat.

    Great to hear the news, Mike. Would think about driving down to St.Luis to join you and Greg, but figure, as a Cub and Blackhawk fan, that with just one stop at a St.Lewis diner my car would be reduced to a couple lugnuts and some broken glass on the parking lot pavement!!! Am happy for you, though, and Pray many more good reports are coming your way.
