It all started with a lump on her neck. I believe that cisplatin is the chemo she is getting. she already had one treatment August 12 and started the radiation at the same time. Her next chemo will be September 3. So far no major side effects. She is 60 and was a smoker but quite years ago. We are in Vancouver BC., Canada. Any helpful hints to help her along this early stage will be helpful. she needs to get cream to put on her neck....What brand did you all use?
