Joined: Jan 2003 Posts: 95 | I haven't been on line in a while 4 years ago my husband was dx with tounge cancer he had radiation chemo and survive maybe about a year later he had a soot on his lung and had a lobe removed ,couple of months ago he had skin cancer also removed . He went for all his check ups regularly ENT<. Thorasic , oncology, scans etc. last week he noticed something on his tongue followed up with ENT says It's cancer again but he can't have radiatin again and he doesn't suggest removing it because he wouldn,t be able to eat or talk.this time it,s in the middle to the side last time it was in the back . Has anyone gotten this twice and had success. we are going today to oncologist but i have very negative feelings . not showing them of course but any input would be great Thanks Diane | | |
