Second recurrence.

ENT told me my byopsy came back positive. Small spot, soft pallet.

I thought I had it licked in November 2008; surgery, flap, skin graph, 30 days rads.
It came back in Oct 2009; Surgery in November; flap, skin graph...Flap problems two more surgeries in December...flap won't take because of previous rads. Completed 30 rads, carbo 6wks, 30 HBO dives, end of March 2010.

Back to work in June, PET/CT first week of July...small spot, back of mouth. Here I go again, I'm waiting treatment solution this time. 'Been through rads twice? Surgery can cut it out, but flap wouldn't hold...........we'll see..........just had to vent....thanks..

    Venting is good
    This is the perfect place to vent. I am sorry that you have to go through it again. Good luck with everything.
