I go to the oral surgeon tommorrow - so I guess I'll ask him for a referral to a radiation oncologist to see what they say. The head and neck surgeons are the ones who are treating me right now - but the oral surgeon is the one who originally did the biopsy and teeth extraction. I live in Cincinnati - does anyone know the closest cancer center that deals with oral cancer? We have the Barrett Cancer Center and the cancer center at Christ Hospital. But, I don't know if either of these has dealth much with oral cancer.
SCC Right Lateral Tongue T2N0M0 Dx 01/12/06, Surgery 01/25/06. Partial Glossectomy, Bilateral Neck Dissection - 22 lymph nodes - all clear. No radiation.
