In November 2002 while Pseudopod was on the road in support of their self-titled debut CD, their lead singer, Kevin Carlberg, sought treatment at a local medical clinic for terrible headaches and nausea. A CAT scan revealed that it was a small tumor that would most likely require surgery. Carlberg and the rest of the band immediately returned to Los Angeles. After the tumor was diagnosed as malignant, a five-hour operation to remove the tumor soon followed. As a result, their upcoming tour dates with O.A.R. were canceled.
Radiation and chemotherapy treatment followed the procedure, and Carlberg spent late last year and early January recuperating from his illness. By mid-January, his doctors gave him the okay to go on tour, and Pseudopod is now back on the road with O.A.R.
