HI there

Got my diagnosis on 28.10.20  stage 2 Nasopharyngeal carcinoma. In Nov 2017 my hearing was dull in my left ear, then my nose started dribbling. Saw an ENT consultant who suggested a septoplasty and grommits in 2019. This did not work, got another septoplasty in 2020. This did not do anything for me. Saw another consultant and they found a growth at the back of the nose which turned out to be stage 2 cancer. Getting 35 treatments of radiotherapy and Chemo over 7 weeks. so wish me luck!
