Have an appointment with an RO tomorrow @ Georgetown/Lombardi CCC. Looking forward to a plan. Did my ENT make a mistake by superficially removing the tumor? It seems like this is not standard protocol, as this could present problems during RT. Hoping to get a scan soon to see if there is any more cancer in other spots.
