Thought it was a bad cough/cold but after a couple of months thought maybe not, so got the docs involved; eventually after antibiotics then a fungal creme finaly got to hospital ENT; transnasal endoscope discovered a lump looking like a wart on a vocal chord, more faffing with biopsies etc they've now given it a name, Squamous Carcinoma, yet more faffing to decide if I can stand a general anaesthetic - aftermath of 40 years smoking although gfiven up 16 years ago the chest ain't that efficient.

Si finally today I get the verdict radio thereapy 5 days a week for 4 weeks; at some time during that I'm likely to be feeling a bit yukk so if I drop off the scene for a while in 2 or 3 weeks time hopefully normal operation will resume sometime mid - late April.
Cheers MIKE

Mike,

Mrs "H" went through radio therapy for 5 weeks back in 2014 at Pisa.  We used to go for a curry and some vino afterwards...  She never had any ill effects from the treatment.

Hope it all works out for you.

All the best  Jerry

Best wishes. Time to catch up on old MR mags in the waiting room!
