Wendy, David, Cheryl, Donna, Connie,

Thanks very much for sharing your thoughts. I agree with being aggressive now, and am scheduled to meet with a MO tomorrow. I will let you know what he says. In the meantime, I was wondering if any of you experienced extra capsular extension in the nodes. Apparently the reason my RO did not think chemo is needed is because I had no extra capsular extension.

On another note, my RO is planning to radiate both sides of the neck (because two lymph nodes), even though only the left side had any evidence of SCC. Based on your comments above, I am assuming that a more aggressive option such as this is better, but thought I'd bounce it off you.

Thanks again for your valuable insight!

Best Regards,
Chetan
