Active duty Recently Diagnosed with neck cancer. Any others that served in Mosul or Mazar e shrief
On 16 October I was diagnosed with neck cancer. I had surgery on Monday to remove a tumor from the base of my tongue and my lymph nodes from the right side. Hopefully they will get it all out and that will be the end of it. If not I will have to get radiation therapy or another surgery and maybe chemo. It has been a crazy two weeks getting prepared. And going through this. I got home two days ago. I have had a hard time posting about it. I am a non Tabacco user, not a heavy drinker and in good health. It came as a total surprise. Not sure if there are other OIF or OEF vets out there going through the same thing? Hopefully I can beat it.
