Thanks Christine, Surgery was done in Hospital by my ENT Doctor. Hospital has cancer patients (does this make it a cancer center?).

ENT Doctor told me since depth of the tumor was more than 4mm they can't just rely on CT results and have to do a neck dissection.

Anyway unlike many here, I can't claim innocence. I was warned that my bad habit would catch up. Well guess its time to pay the piper. That piper mad
