Hello, I am Sabrena. We noticed that my husband had a spot on his tongue this past May 2019 that looked like an ulcer with leukoplakia. We thought maybe he had bitten his tongue in his sleep. In August he was seen by an oral surgeon who wanted to biopsy (take the whole lesion out). The pathology report came back as SSC of the tongue, stage I / invasive (beyond the squamous outer covering). The lesion was cut out with cancer free borders. We were sent to Moffitt for further treatment. The further testing was not impressive, no signs of disease anywhere else in the oral cavity or in the neck area by endoscopy and CT scan. The doctor's suggested SND (selective neck disection) and to cut out more of his tongue tissue, despite the previous clear margins. We think that a 2nd opinion regarding the treatment is in order. Don't most people seek 2nd opinions? What are the thoughts on special diets, Chinese medicine, herbal medicine and homeopathic medicine before cancer treatment / surgery? It would be good to have a boosted immune system, if possible. Health care varies so much depending on where one lives, and I thought that sharing information would be great.
