It was previously revealed that Black Sabbath’s Tony Iommi was set to undergo surgery to get a lump removed from his throat. Now in a new interview with Planet Rock, Iommi revealed that the lump was fortunately not cancerous.
He said the following:
“Well, I had the treatment when I got back from South America I went in for the throat [operation]–they found a lump at the back of my sinus in the throat and we had to have it checked in case it may have been cancerous.
But it turns out it wasn’t, which I found out on Christmas Day, which is brilliant! So far [I’m all good.] I daren’t say that–I’ll probably fall down the stairs now!”
It is also worth noting that Iommi’s lymphoma is still in remission.
