Joined: Apr 2009 Posts: 104 | John just completed radiation, after surgery to remove the primary tumor (right tonsillar region though he had a tonsillectomy as a kid) and the three cancerous lymph nodes (plus a number of others that were matted together but turned out to be noncancerous). The ENT and RO decided on surgery followed by radiation vs radiation and chemo, so now we'll see; he finished up the treatments on the 14th...
best of wishes for your situation
