Hi All,

Just back from consultants and great news... ALL CLEAR !:

Called in and told good news, consultant is happy with scan and not showing anything of any concern to him and I have had a good response to treatment. Also told that after such a positive response to treatment and scan showing way it is after treatment then statistically there is a 97% chance that it will remain like that.
It's a weird thing to take in as well as after all this time I suppose I can now say I'm cured and cancer free. I'm just so used to "having throat cancer". I've been so positive throughout and still kept my humor but was little bit emotional coming out room.Think just sheer relief as no more further treatment required.

Massive thanks to all on here for all your wishes and support throughout my treatment and recovery.
I also think its great for others to hear yet another positive outcome and hope provides further inspitration and belief that the light at the end of the tunnel does actually exist.

Onwards and Upwards....from a cancer free Ian

What fantastic news for you! It is really great to read these positive stories of successful treatment. Thank you for posting your result.

The spray is called Glandosane its ok for 10-15 mins better than nothing, no letter about my scan date yet Iv got the 18th April for results so it should be about the 4th April, i`ll give it untill the end of this week and will contact them if iv not heard anything.

Dave

Hi Dave 

nit heard of that one .i do have saliva it’s just thick . my parotid  gland o right side took a battering from radiotherapy and it’s that gland that makes thin saliva so my left one is ok but the other glands make thicker  normaly it all mixes without us noticing .its suprising what info we learn so a small long a inhave water am fine mune is worst at night. Small,price to pay though .mwonder  whinwe will get bet it’s Cityb!!! LOL

h 

Yes I agree not having saliva is a small price to pay for the right outcome, amazing what saliva does for us, we taste with it, it protects teeth, helps us chew and aids digestion.

I don’t care who we get in the quarters Hazel I’m just enjoying the Ole revival.

Dave

Hi Dave agree on both points. Re saliva it’s so difficult to explain to anyone how you feel ,it the most  debilitating thing. I find talking to too many people hurts if that makes sense your mouth is such an integral thing it’s impossible  to describe to someone who isn’t going through it. 

But hey got at least 18 months before I know what I will end uo with so slowly slowly it is improving .

bring on Sunday and Arsenal gane
