Waiting results

My partner is getting his results next week an appointment with the consultant has just been made. We were told at the first appointment the mass was highly likely cancer and a biopsy taken. Scans were scheduled very quickly so now we just have to see what the staging is. I go from being positive to feeling of despair.

  • Hi DebsyJ

    The waiting is the worst and your feelings are totally normal. Easier said than done I know but try and keep busy with things you enjoy. Sending hugs. X

  • Hi the appointment was today. We have been told it is definitely cancer it is on his tonsil. The positive news its localised and is curable. We attend the oncology meeting within 2 weeks to discuss treatment options which they warned probably means removal of teeth (not sure how many) before radiotherapy. To be honest as awful as the side effects they told us about and the prospect of teeth loss it is a small price to pay to get rid of this cancer. Thankyou for replying to me it helped knowing someone was willing to do that. x
