Thanks David 2.
Ours situation looks similar. He already removed the big lymph node. He did not remove anything else. I have a slight discoloration on the left side of tomgue(same side node). 1/4" high 1 in long. But tongues are weird looking any way. Could just be where I bite it. ENT did not think it looked suspicious. He does have several other Oral cancer case right now.
PET Scheduled for Wednesday 5th. He said we have to stage it. Follow up surgery 12th. Biopsy what he sees. Dig at the tonsils (and I still have mine)and try to find something.
Is this fast enough? When do I contact other parties for second opinions?
Right now all I have is Clear CAT, and Biopsy Left lymph node positive SCC. No primary not PET.
