T2NO BOT Squamous Cell is the final diagnosis after 2 biopsies, CT's, MRI's and PET scans. I start Cetuximab on Monday 12/30 at Stanford and will do it every monday thereafter for 7 weeks. The following Monday(January-6th) I will add radiation daily. I am taking part in a clinical trial which pits Cisplatin vs. Cetuximab for efficacy and side effects. Can't wait to get through it and be cancer free!
