Tonsil cancer

Hi my husband was diagnosed with tonsil cancer on 6.1.17 ...he found a lump in his neck back in November 2016...after much testing and waiting its getting very frustrating....today we go to get his treatment plan which we thought we were getting on jan 24th....his pet scan showed a mass in his colon so he went for a sigmoidoscopy and they found a 3cm polyp which they couldnt remove...he has to go for a colonoscopy on 16th march as u can imagine this is very worrying and dragging on and on.. hoping gor some positive news today about his tonsil and lymph node cancer treatment..will he be able to have tbis polyp removed if hes having treatment and if not will this polyp be a cancer too and continue to grow....im at my wits end with it all anyone else out there had the same or similar please ....

  • Hi Morlaw

    So sorry to hear of your husbands diagnosis and I know how scary this is. My husband was diagnosed with tonsil cancer with a secondary tumour in his lymph nodes in his neck in December 2015. Once you have seen the oncologist and you have a treatment plan you will feel more in control of things and be able to process them more clearly. There are lots of people on this site who are or have been in your same situation and Im sure they will offer you support and tips to help you get rhrough this. If I can be of any help tben please let me know.

    Best wishes xxx
