Hey to all ! I am currently in treatment for SCC of the vocal cords, Stage 1. I have completed 27 IMRT treatments. My concern, dumb as it is, I do not seem to be having the side effects that just about everyone has. I can still eat, my voice has actually gotten better. I even asked my RO if he was giving me enough "juice". My TX are 5 days a week and the current plan is 39 total treatments. No PEG. I feel terrible after reading so many posts about the difficulties other people are having. I an just afraid the TX may not get the cancer if I am not having the side effects.
