No, lifelong nonsmoker with a healthy lifestyle (glass a wine with dinner, lots of vegs, little beef, get my checkup, mammogram, colonosopy). The local ENT told me I shouldn't have this cancer, I am not a candidate.
The primary is on the aryiglottic fold in the supraglottic area of the larynx. The doc thinks it's likely a
HPV positive tumor. I hope it is since he told me those have a better chance of survival.
Thanks for responding.
