Hi ca13kct,

Our specialist nurses would like you to know:

Mucoepidermoid tumours are one of the more common types of salivary gland tumours.  You will find some information about salivary gland cancer at the following link; http://www.cancerhelp.org.uk/about-cancer/cancer-questions/salivary-gland-cancer  We will soon be adding even more information about salivary gland tumours, but if  you have more detailed questions in the mean time it might be helpful to contact our nurse team on 0808 800 4040.

Hi Ca

So sorry to read of your diagnosis.

My husband was diagnosed with this in 2008 in the parotid gland.

The worst thing having a rare cancer is the lack of treatment options available to you. We only found one other person with this in the UK at the time. There was very little info available at that time but I think that has improved somewhat.

Anything you want to ask then I am happy to answer if I can. xx

Just noticed this is an older post(eyesight problem s)
