My husband just noticed a lump on the bottom of his tongue on the left side. He just got back from the dentist who did a brush biopsy. If it is cancer, my DH will have caught it early (1 cm).

It is my understanding that treatment is usually minor surgery and if it comes back, radiation. I had radiation for Breast Cancer and hated it. I understand that radiation in the head and mouth area is even more nasty.

How many Stage 1 on this board had radiation and what are the results?
