Hi David,

Thanks for your advice.

It was quite amazing that none of the doctors here have actually checked for HPV16 despite numerous requests stating that the cancer is on the oral tongue, and the probability is very low that it would be HPV+

The pathology report after surgery has come out all clear but one of the frozen margin rates was only 2mm and hence they wanted to be safe and go ahead with chemo on top of the radiotherapy.

Will make sure to do a bit more digging up but it's a tough decision to make for my wife as she has gone through so much up till date..
