Hey captain Aussie Thanks for getting back. Geez this last few weeks have been crazy! They took out both my tonsils and tumour. Now tomorrow, I am having a course of radiation therapy as a precautionary. I don’t have to do chemo now as the tumour has been removed. I feel a lot more positive than I did. I don’t smoke I am a total fitness freak so this was all a shock to me everyone. Thanks again Lizzy

Hi, I have just been diagnosed with tonsil cancer. 1cm primary. Large lump in lymph node removed neck dissection. PET scan didn't she any other hot spot other than tonsil. I'm doing as much research as I can at the moment. Do you know Why they can't just remove my tonsil? No one seems to be very clear on this. Also as got diet I read your comment on cancer thriving on acid. I have been drinking apple cider vinegar is that considered acidic? Thanks, lizzy

Hi, I have just been diagnosed with cancer after the removal of a large lump in my lymph node. The Primary cancer is 1cm from tonsil or so they think after a PET scan. Im just wondering why they don't offer you to have your tonsils removed? After I've been reading about the risk associated with radiation therapy. I would have thought having them removed would be a better option. Thanks,
