Since Nov. 2004, I have had my thyroid and some affected neck muscle removed, then a tumor on my vocal chord nerve was removed, then Lymph nodes in the left side of my neck were removed... surgery x 3. In May 2007 two tumors in the Lymph nodes, were found in the left side of my neck... Has anyone else had metastitis like mine and how do you cope?
