Hi! I also had the same as you, my oncologist said my tumor was extremely small and no spread so the risks of chemo outweighed the benefits. But in saying that I'm sitting here waiting on biopsy results of some abnormal thickening on my tongue but could also be due to the radiation.... So time will tell! Good luck on your journey, I'm only new here myself but have found it to be such a great site with extremely helpful people all on this roller coaster.
