Joined: Jun 2004 Posts: 155 | This confusion is so the norm. and so frustrating Right now my husband is in the bind of choosing between watchful waiting post surgery T2NoMo of the oral tongue or having radiation. As in the archived debate one Dr says watch wait and save radiation for a reoccurence and another Dr says get it now and worry about a reoccureence if and when it happens. For those who have had a reoccurrence after radiation what were your treatmnet options?
