I have looked all over this site for information regarding the treatment for cancer on the epiglottis. Has anyone ever gotten cancer there and if so what were the outcomes? Feb. 2008 I came up/down with an SCC stage 4 on the base of tongue. I had all the usuals, cleared several times, now with esophageal constriction, can't eat solids or liquids. Will be starting swallowing treatments/exercises next week. At last visit with Dr. he found a 'bug' on my epiglottis. Go back next week to get a Tx. Radiation is not an option. Surgery is ok with me. ? who has had this situation themselves? thanks been on a PEG ssince last Feb. Doesn't really bother me. thanks


I have found that attitude can make a world of difference.
