Your cancer sounds similar to my boyfriend's; he's going to start rad next week. You must be in your third week--are you experiencing a lot of irritation/sores/mouth and throat pain? He hasn't gotten a PEG tube yet; RO says he'll need one but everyone has an opinion and John wants to wait as long as possible so he can continue exercising, etc to keep strong.


GM, for John who has SCC Rt tonsil with 3+ nodes, Stage T1 N2b MX; surgery 04/09; Rad X 33 completed 7/14/09...f/u imaging and scopes looking good as of Feb 2011
