Trilled to hear the chemo resolved the tumors. After the first round of TPF, there was visual reduction in size. After the second, more reduction. After the third round, it was gone and the CT/PET reported "near or complete resolution".

As we know, cancer can only be killed with radiation or removal. I underwent chemo-radiation after the TPF to ensure there was total annihilation of the cancer. I received carboplatin to reduce the side effects while still acting as a radio-sensitizer to the rads.

The RO is right, HNC rads rarely make people nauseated but very common side effect of chemo.

As to the PEG, it is side effects of rads that require one being put in. The damage to the throat from rads makes it for many impossible to eat orally.
