Hi all. Recently diagnosed with SCC BOT Stage 4 with numerous nodes on both sides. Have met with the medical oncologist and have an appointment on Monday with the radiation oncologist and the surgeon for the port and the PEG. I decided to get the PEG but don't plan on using it or at least using it very much. My plan is to force myself to swallow regardless of the pain. PET scan scheduled for Tuesday. I am just scared and can't quit crying. Chemo and radiation scheduled to start on or about December 3rd. How did you all get it together for your families and friends?
