Hello and welcome to HCM,
I understand from your query that you have had pre-cancerous lesion of the cervix.
And your husband is having stage 4 cancer of the throat accompanied by enlargement of neck lymph nodes and he has taken chemotherapy and radiology.
Since, you have had a pre-cancerous lesion of the cervix, it is important to stay on regular follow up for recurrence or distant spread of the tumor.
In case there is recurrence or distant spread further treatment (chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy) may be required.
Thanks and take care
