No rad. recommended and we were not then at a comp. cancer center. 4 months later he had a very aggressive tumor in his neck, and had rad. neck dissection, chemo and radiation. If I had known more then, we would have gotton to a cancer center immediately. Just get the best help you can find!
God bless, Debbie
