Hi guys . Yep got the fright of my life as we all do . Lymph nods on my RHSide were raised . Went to the doc whom sent me off for a scan . Straight of to see and ENT specialist. First out came the lymph nods . Next both tonsils and tissue removed for biopsys and at the ripe age of 62 thats not nice . Pet scan after it was proven that there was nothing in the biopsy. Pet scan came up with unknown primary and no cancer anywhere else . So we had 33 rounds of radiation and 6 rounds of chemo . As most people whom have had this it starts when you realise you have no Silva and you are constantly waking up with a really dry mouth . I was going through 600 ml a night of water . Dont be a hero . Fentanyl patches and liquid morphine are your friend and if you want to get through it without a peg you need to eat and drink plenty . Mouth and neck muscle exercises are a must . Plenty of dermeez for the burn areas . My first week out from treatment and tonight i had a nandos wrap . For breeky i am having porridge or ceral and yes a lot of it is just tastless . Tonights meal was the first time the top of my tongue let me taste the food . So nice . So im looking forward to the next couple as i am over being a shadow of a person . Stay strong and if you want to talk about what i or you have to go through , let me know . Vinnie
