Pathology is in. One node tested positive for cancer and it had erupted so I may or may not have cancer in my neck. Surgeon recommends chemo and radiation but I'm not sure I'm on board with this option since I could be compromising my immune system for no reason. The level of radiation would be less than if there was proof there was cancer.
Thoughts?

P.S. - I'm doing HBO treatments and Vitamin C IV three times per week

47-year-old Healthy active person, non-drinker, non-smoker. Feb 2016 - Diagnosed with SCC on tongue, CT scan indicated no visible spread, non HPV-related March 11, 2016 - 30% of tongue removed, all nodes on left side of neck. March 23, 2016 - results found cancer in only one node but it had erupted. May or may not have cancer in the neck but am not doing the chemo/radiation route unless it's my last option. Will try naturopathic methods first. |
