Possible cancer recurrence

edited October 23 in Head and Neck Cancer #1

I was treated for stage 3 tonsillar cancer in 2014. I had radiation for six weeks and have been cancer-free since. I recently noticed sudden weight loss, so I went to my regular doctor and he scheduled me for 3 CT scans with contrast from head and neck down to the pelvis.

I feel confident that if cancer, it would be in the head and neck area; unless something else is the cause for the weight loss.

This site was a great source of information and support from folks going through the same ordeal when I was going through treatment 11 years ago.

I appreciate any input from those with similar experiences.

Thank you

Arman
