I still felt ok after the first week of radiation. By the end of the third week, though, it was getting to me bigtime. Then the mouth sores started.....it was the longest six weks of my life.

Maybe radiation will be easier for him because they know exactly where the tumor is and can target it. He's in for an ordeal though, no doubt about it. I'm an 'unknown primary' so I think my radiation covered a larger area.

Does anyone know where he's being treated?

dx 2/13/06. modified radical neck dissection 3/9/06 multiple biopsies of upper airway and direct laryngoscopy. 1 of 47 lymph nodes positive for metastatic undifferentiated carcinoma (lymphoepithelioma). Unknown primary. Finished radiation 5/24/06.
