We had that discussion about the two drugs with our ENT and the first oncologist. They felt that in my husband's case, it was the drug of choice. Far fewer side effects and has proven to be highly successful with their patients. We will meet with the second opinion on Thursday. If it is the same, that is what we will do. Right now our ENT surgeon and the radiologist are in disagreement over the radiation treatments. They are having a talk and getting back to us. It would be nice if everyone was on the same page!
Thanks so much for the link! I keep on researching and reaching out for help and support. I really appreciate it!
