Hello Angels again! I posted once post surgery to find foods I could swallow and received answers that helped! Now, I am concerned about radiation as my next step? My path report was: HPV+, primary base of tongue 1x.5cm clear margins, 6 nodes removed same side and one cancerous 3+cm clear margins. The UCLA head&neck surgeon stated I need radiation due to the size of the one node? I have NOT met with the radiation oncologist YET. What do I need to know as far as options when dealing with radiation? How much agony will I endure? I just had my 1st good meal yesterday; am I going back to not eating? Thanks for all your support?
