I could use some DU good vibes, maybe even a prayer or two...
if you're into that sort of thing.

I'm seeing a radio oncologist Monday. Sore throat for a couple months, trouble swallowing. Coughing up blood and all that crap. Had a biopsy Thursday, won't know results 'till Monday, but my ear nose and throat guy says he's 90% sure it's throat cancer. Squamous cell carcinoma, stage II or III. Gonna try radiation only. I am going to beat this, but I'll take all the help I can get!

Thanks in advance, guys!

8. You are in my thoughts and I am sending you good vibes as I type
I had a cancer scare last month, I thought I had cancer in my girly parts, damn you web MD! But it turned out to be a completely normal occurance after having children.

It is very scary, I hope that all is well.

Take care,

O8)

I was given a death sentence 7 years ago and I am well today. Please, keep the faith. Learn all that you can about alternatives, as well.

I went to Mexico and received Gerson Therapy at Hospital Meridian. Was cancer free in less than 5 weeks, on this therapy. It is very difficult to stick to, but was well worth it for me.

Learn about Essiac Tea! It is extraordinary stuff!!

Visit Dr. Lorraine Day's web page and learn how to get well through nutrition. Her story is remarkable!

Most of all, try not to be afaid of cancer. It CAN be cured, and in my opinion very easily.

I will keep you in my prayers!

30. Best of wishes to you Andy
And I know you can whoop it, if not physically then always mentally.

My mom was diagnosed with leukemia over three years ago and it's been the most active, feel-good time of her life. Plus the emotional side - we've never been closer...they call it the "perverse benefits of cancer" - it helped us in a weird way to get past all the meaningless bullshit and just enjoy each other, period. And she's in remission, so fuck the nay-sayers (including her doctors - who were wrong).

I wish for you: strength and above all, happiness. :)

31. A little over a year ago I was diagnosed with
a papillary carcinoma of my thyroid. Rare, but treatable. I am sure yours is bit more serious. Is this cancer known for mestatizing? If not, I'd bet radiation is going to beat this. I had major surgery to remove the 2cm tumor, total thyroidectomy and radiation. It wasn't too unpleasant but rough nonetheless. The radiation is no big deal if you can stand the isolation. Doctors can do amazing stuff these days with cancer. It is NOT a death sentence! Good vibes going your way.

Edited on Sat Apr-23-05 06:59 PM by Liberal_Andy
Doc said sometimes it is, and sometimes not. He said it was not "real advanced". The CT scan next week should answer a lot.

43. Please keep us informed as you get your diagnosis and afterwards.
If indeed it is cancer, resolve yourself to doing whatever you have to to win the battle.

I know sometimes during chemo my dad got so frustrated. Sometimes I think he was dealing with depression. We stayed close to him and helped him through it, and, as a result, I have a closer relationship with him than ever.

You will need people to talk to, people to listen to. PM me anytime, and I'll be glad to offer an ear.

... I hope things work out well and that your treatment is effective. You've got a tough few months ahead of you, so don't be shy about turning to your family and friends for emotional support and encouragement.

PS: You've probably already read EVERYTHING there is to read about it... but look what I found. It sounds hopeful to me...

General Discussion

Squamous Cell Carcinoma is among the most common types of skin cancer. It usually develops on the tissue of the skin and mucous lining of the body cavities (epithelium) but may occur anywhere on the body. With appropriate treatment, it is usually curable. Squamous Cell Carcinoma most commonly affects individuals who are exposed to large amounts of sunlight. Susceptibility is related to the amount of melanin pigment in the skin, and light-skinned persons are most vulnerable.

I had a ultrasound done on my stomach Friday to determine extreme pain source. Doc mentioned pancreas and that sent my mind reeling.

By the way, my mom had throat cancer. She recovered.

I worked with cancer patients preparing healing foods for them . PM me if you're interested.

:hug: Radiation therapy is tough. The single best piece of advice I have is, if you can't eat and they suggest a feeding tube, go for it--the struggle is easier if you aren't also starving. Also, don't try to be tough. Take care of yourself...and request liquid morphine.

75. Your spirit sounds good, Andy!
You've got the right attitude about beating this. And you can. And you will.

In the last 4-5 years, *many* people in my life have dealt with one or another form of cancer, including me. The common thread -- ALL are survivors.

I'm really sorry you're going through this, but you'll come out on the other side of the ordeal a stronger, healthier you.

Am sending many good thoughts and prayers your way. Keep us posted on how it's going! :hug:

87. I'll keep a thought for you, man.
It's tough to go through. Just think about getting on the other side of treatment and it'll be over before you know it.

Sorry you have to go through this.
