Thank you so much for your response I think my biggest thing is because the doctor that she first seen in the hospital who did the biopsy said that it started in her left tonsil and had already spread to her lymph nodes so don't know how long she actually had it or how long or what the next step would be if it's spreading so that's the part that scares me I have been doing a lot of reading on different ways that this SSC type 3 Works some say it spread slowly some say once it hits your organs it's game over so I don't know again just waiting to see a doctor but first have to get the insurance are medical field has definitely changed back in the day you used to be able to go to the emergency room when you were in pain and they actually cared and did something not now soon as they know you don't have insurance for they're ready to send you home with some Tylenol 3.
