Hi Everyone, I’ve just been diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma in my neck. I’m told the tumour is secondary and the search is on to find the primary site. Due a PET scan soon and a robotic tongue mucosectomy - which I’m terrified of.
Welcome to Cancer Chat Rich, although I'm sorry to hear about the squamous cell carcinoma in your neck, and that the primary cancer is yet to be found.

We are here for you Rich and wishing you all the best with your upcoming PET scan and robotic tongue mucosectomy.
