Well had a result! Couldn't get the camera past the mass - was referred from respiratory to ENT - then camera again followed by a biopsy at which he was kept in 'cos blood pressure too high - but now have the result & an Op on Saturday followed by treatment. This is in Malta where we spend a lot of our time but never in July-September as too hot but due to the virus are here still, better I think than the UK where his 'sore throat with blood' would have been ignored. So obviously here for a while, the only thing is the heat which I really can't stand as I have lung problems, but at long last I will also be seeing a consultant tomorrow & catching up with our MoTs. Would appreciate comments from others who have had this cancer. Thank you.
