WELCOME TO MY BLOG

I have just been diagnosed with a Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma of my right tonsil, this means I have a malignant tumour on my tonsil. This has grown into my soft palate, which makes surgery very difficult.

I have decided to setup this blog for people to read through what my journey to recovery will be and the treatment I will receive on the way.

I am sure there will be some high and low points, some funny moments and some deep dark days ahead, but hopefully for anyone in the same situation as me it gives you some hope, tips on what to do and above all else the FIGHT to get through what can only be described as a very tough ordeal.

Off to Scotland

Flying up to Scotland for family wedding this coming weekend, not feeling at my best and after the flight feeling pretty rough, my jaw is giving me a lot of grief, very painful and I feel very tired, not sure if this is the effects of taking aimspro as I think until the body gets used to it it knocks you out for a while.

Get to the castle for the wedding, spectacular.....I won't bore you with the full details of the wedding, but suffice to say was a great weekend, managed to eat some of the food, but my appetite has disappeared so not eating that much, partly as I am having some trouble swallowing, but think this is a combination of the gum swelling from the Op and the lump seems to be slightly larger than before, again not sure if this is just my mind working overtime or the fact that with no teeth it just feels different?
