currently I am just waiting for this referral process to play out and get an appointment with City of Hope. It should be coming quick and in the meantime on Monday my ENT is going to sonically search my neck and jaw and hope to not find cancer but only some fluid and infection to pull out. I will take your advice and let my doctors as well as the City of Hope know that I want to start right away on the immune inhibitors and not mess around with Erbitux and any other old school treatments at this time. I am very honored to have the support of this foundation and I will call on your help if needed. Thank you again and I hope to have some good news soon. If you have any other options or ways I should do things please let me know. If i can post or message my number to brian or anyone else that has help for me let me know.
