Welcome Lee Ann,

You’ve came to the right spot if you would like answers or the right questions to ask your doctor. I’m not sure anyone I recall that has has epiglottis and lymph node cancer. As far a the lymph nodes they can start in certain levels from l to VI, but cab have skip metasteses. I had oropharyngeal cancer, and area of concern is from ll to IV, usually starting in the lower number first, and is the same on other cancer stating on a lower lymph node. Off hand, I do now know the levels for the epiglottis, but is readily available.

I’m not sure of the questions need, but that can be a good start? You can also ask any questions of your support staff at the treatment center as well.

I did have a partially paralyzed epiglottis from treatment, so I aspirated. I went through Speech and Swallow therapy that found the the problemon during a modified barium swallow test.

The people belonging to this site are often knowledgeable. Some had multiple treatments and experiences such as myself, who took me 10 years to become cancer free, which is not the norm, but I will take that too.

So if you have any questions, ask away. You can also read the treatment overview.

Good luck!
