[quote]questions. Should i insist on going with him? I wish he could go to MD Anderson in Houston. He had no insurance and is continuing to work so far[/quote]It is usually preferable to have multiple sets of ears listening to what the doctor has to say as well as the patient to ensure things are being clearly understood. Insist if you can without jeopardizing your relationship with him. As to seeking alternate treatment options while underway is rarely done. btw - the recommended treatment seems standard of care and common and in line with what has already been done. I would place your trust in whom is caring for him now unless you get some bad vibes that there may be competence issues.

You can google NCCN head and neck cancer guidelines and read up on the professional standard of care for this sort of thing; it will ease your mind things are going fine. don
