NED! First 3 month post check-up
Well, we had good news today - PET results - wonderful with no hot spots. My husband still has some lumpy lymph nodes but they continue to shrink. For the newbies on this site - it is seven months since he was diagnosed with HPV tonsil cancer and 3 lymph node invovlement. Three cisplatin treatments and seven weeks of radiation left him exhausted, skinny, and with dry mouth. Now, three months after last radiation treatment, he is eating, working out, and recovering. Life is good. This site has been so wonderful for us and like so many we send out best to everyone engaged in this battle.
Cheers!

Congrats ! Me Also, 3 months out.
Big awesome congrats go out to you.
I had my last radiation on Oct 29th, first PET Scan end of Jan and It was clear also. I had 3 rounds of Chemo, a blood clot in lower lung, 4 trips a week each spent in hospital for one thing or another. 37 daily mon to friday radiation treatments. A Trach, feeding tube and port put in back in June 2013 and Trach Removed Jan and almost healed up completly and Get Feeding Tube out This coming Friday. I Had everything done at Stephenson Cancer Center at OU Medical Center and am Very pleased with the outcome. It was a Very Hard last 9 months but Life 2.0 is just starting.
Sooo glad to hear of you NED and wish all the best.
