Welcome to the OCF forum. We are pleased to have you join us regardless of which side of the pond you are on, this disease is completely uninterested in where you reside!! I am sure you will hear from people here that have had similar treatments to yours. I am ill prepared to address some of your issues, as my own treatment was composed of a radical neck on one side and the max dose of radiation that I could withstand. If you have questions related to either of those two treatments and how things have progressed, I would be pleased to answer them. Welcome to OCF.
