I sometimes wonder who visits this Head and Neck Cancer area. I thought I would get a count. Probably, not everyone will sign up. If you do, please complete the following:

Forum Name, Type of Cancer, Year, and Home State

I will start.

HAWVET,Nasopharyngeal, 1998, Hawaii

Mahalo (Thank you)

    Slickwilly. Difuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma. 2003. Michigan. Mass with Octopus tenticles romoved from the right side of my face. Cancer from the Sinus cavity to the right jaw bone. 6 Chop+Rituxin treatments and 25 Radiation treatments. No more right facial nerve. 1/2 of my saliva glands, taste buds and sinus left. A minor meningioma brain tumor and it was Arthritis and spinal stenosis that finally put me on disability. Gotta hate those side effects. Keep fighting
