Sorry to hear the bad news but hang in there. I am my mothers caregiver . She also had ear pain which brought her to the ENT. From there it all began. SCC started in my mothers left lower jaw.
I know the feeling of no sleep. I find myself online all night researching a lot . I asked the Oncologist to prescribe my mother Ativan for the anxiety. It seems to be working well and she rest much better also.
Hang in there and also you will find this forum very helpful to many questions you might have.
Good luck
Heidi
