Hi Fish,

Where did you get treated at? Is it a comprehensive cancer center? My surgeon led the tumor board at my hospital and did not want to suggest radiation unless she absolutely had to - so we waited for the lab results. I had super clear margins - all over 1 cm, but it turned out I had PNI. We were all really sad that I had to go for radiation, but I decided I wasn't having this cancer coming back.

My teeth are still in place - my doctor's assured me I wouldn't lose them, but I do have fluoride trays that I wear for 10 minutes each night. It's not so bad.

I also go to a dentist every 4 months - one who specializes in oncology.
