: I had a malignnt tumor removed from the lymph nodes in my neck in July. They have determined no cancer in the lungs or bronchial tubes and could see none on exam of head, neck and throat. I am taking radiation of head and neck as a precaution. Has anyone had this type of diagnosis/ What is prognosis? What happens after the radiation treatments are over?? Any info appreciated.

my mother had a very ambiguous diagnosis as well which started in the lymph nodes. it turned out to be melanoma. have them look into that. god bless.
