Mary,

Sory you had to join us but you are in the right place. You might want to start your own thread. Since you are in treatment now you can go to that forum and start a new thread.

I'm in Michigan also and had my treatment to the soft palet. no surgery, just rad.

If you have any questions feel free and fire away. We are here for you.
