Hi there - you want to know the size and lymph node involvement - is it of your oral tongue or in your throat? If it's oral tongue (sore on, in or under your actual tongue) you should have surgery which should be followed by chemo and rads. - depending on the amount of involvement. If you are having surgery it should be accompanied by a neck dissection. Even if you have no lymphatic involvement showing on the CT chances are it may have seeded to the nodes. If it's not oral tongue cancer unless it's a massive tumor (that needs debulking) or in the tonsils chances are they will do radiation and chemo - if it's confirmed to be HPV + - that is something you want to know if possible as it helps determine treatment. Welcome and it sucks but you will get through it,
