Diagnosed with epiglottis Squamous cell cancer
I was diagnosed with Squamous cell cancer and looking to see if anyone here was diagnosed with the same condition and can share information about it to me.
Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Cancer Support Group.
Go up to the search bar and enter in Squamous cell cancer. It is one many people are diagnosed with, so there will be info. I will also look into this topic, as a family member had it.
Thank you. I’m waiting to do my PET scan. I guess I’m looking for others who have gone through this and may still be in the process.
I looked it up. There are many posts on this topic. A PET scan is the only scan i have not had. I hope what they find is manageable.
Hi! Just to clarify- squamous cells are just the type of cell, you want to find peeps with the location of the cancer- throat etc. I have rectal squamous cell cancer, which is treated differently than other rectal cancers (it is actually treated like anal cancer ). Your PET scan will show if your cancer has spread to other parts of your body. God bless and stay strong!
Thanks for you feedback and yes I’m looking for those who have it in their throats and to be more specific on their Epiglottis
Hi. In 2023, I was diagnosed with squamous cell cancer on my vocal cords. They were able to treat the cancer with radiation treatments. The radiation did what it was supposed to do and the cancer was removed. I have been getting checked every three months and there is no evidence of the cancer.
Good luck.
Thanks for your reply and am glad to hear that you are doing well for that gives me hope and a positive outlook
