Hello, I'm new on here. I was diagnosed with Acinic cell carcinoma early in 2004. Had half my jawbone removed, half my tongue, radical neck dissection etc.. 18 months later it returned and had rest of my jaw removed. 6months later a tumour in my skull was zapped by Gamma Knife treatment. I'm doing okay!

I am interested in knowing more about the 'new' drug called Erbitux (Cetuximab) and would be grateful if anyone who has had experience of this could let me know how it affected them - the good bits and the bad! This drug is not yet available on the NHS in the UK (can be got privately) but I believe it is used in America. Many thanks.
