Tongue cancer

I would like to hear from other people I had a quarter  of my tongue  removed after finding  a small lump then rebuilt  from my arm  and then a neck dissection. And my thyroid  removed  I had to learn to talk and eat again I still have trouble now

    welcome to the forum and well done so far

    i know only a small part of what you have been through as I am 2.5 year post treatment for tongue cancer, but I had no surgery, mine was dealt with chemo and Tomotherapy 

    however during my treatment I spoke to others going through similar, I have also been fortunate to meet up with them on two occasions now

    one member. Nicola has been through exactly what you have been through and will be best placed to talk to you

    her post is www.cancerresearchuk.org/.../tongue-cancer-diagnosed-two-days-ago

    give her a post she is a brilliant person to chat to

    well done and keep going
