Squamous cancer of tonsils

Uodate yesterday CT scan for positioning of mask and dots for radiotherapy.Gotbtomsay nit the most comfortable position I have ever laid in but a means to an end.The staff at the hospital once again couldn’t do enough to make me feel comfortable and calm.

Got my own dentist this morning romuodate her which I am nit looking forward to she only gave me a clean bill of oral mouth 2 weeks ago we’ve known her over 20 years so she will be gutted

 in December she finally persuaded me to have a Valplast denture made so £505 later git it 21 December and funnily enough has problems with it including the awful cleaner that burnt my throat umm coincidences ? Who knows  never managed to wear it longer than 30 mins a day and stopped wearing it in March .so bye bye £505 !!

Dietician and McMillan nurses Wednesday ,pre chemotherapy assesment next  Friday ,so in real terms got nearly 10 days off before the torture begins .so trying  to bulk up managed to put the 4lb on that I lost but trying to put a bit more on. As undoubtedly will drop quite a but suppose it saves paying Weight Watchers  you’ve got to retain some sense if humour

  • Hi RadioactiveRaz, 

    I know you're updated on other discussions since making this post but I still wanted to pop by and thank you for letting us know how things are going for you.

    I'm glad the hospital staff were able to make you feel comfortable whilst you were having your mask and dot positioning done. It's never easy but things like this are made a lot easier and much more bearable when you have a supportive team around to help you get through it.

    Good luck with the bulking up RadioactiveRaz and try to enjoy these next 10 days, if you can, before treatment starts.

    Kind regards,
