Doctor decided and confirmed to perform neck dissection at the same time. Also suggested reconstruction at the same time.
First phase of treatment includes;
1. Partial glossectomy
2. Reconstruction
3. Neck dissection
Doctor said, you will not need chemo/rad after that (95% not). (At least what he said and conveniences me.). I wouldn't surprise RO to come up with his set of recommendations after ENT surgery explaining reasons to go for Rads.
Will keep you posted.
