I hope I'm only overreacting but the tumor seems to be getting larger. I have had 4 chemo sessions
once a week with taxol and carboplatin and 11 Radiation treatments out of a scheduled 36. Has anyone else experienced the same thing. I know I have 5 more weeks of Rad but I thought some improvment would begin to show. The tumor is lymph nodes in the lower neck near collarbone.
