Then need to know exactly what they're dealing with - she needs scans if her head and chest prior to treatment otherwise how are they going to know here to radiate and whether to give her treatment - she should see someone else a here week wait is not okay particularly if as I suspect she needs to have other tests done. She should get another opinion with a top ENT in her area who has lots of experience with head and neck cancers. Best of luck.
