In my original post I had a web link redacted by admin. So ignore this paragraph:
One comment I would make here. I find the necessary evil of RAD and Chemo to be very destructive and a horrible torture for anyone to endure. My plan is to go through this protocol anyway as a prophylactic when I am sufficiently healed from this current regimen.

3/17 Begin IMRT RAD & Cisplatin. RAD of 30 treatments, 5 days a week.
