Thanks for the follow up and so glad to hear it is not as serious as originally thought. I recall my doctor not wanting to share the results of the lymph node tests a few days after surgery until everyone got to review it. I pushed him to know as I was aware cancer in the nodes in addition to the tumor on my tongue was significant to my treatment and likely outcome. Short story, he told me then that it was found in my nodes. So, for a week or so, I was ready for rads plus chemo but in the final determination, since it was still inside a single node, the team recommended just rads. I call it the cancer coaster. Like a roller coaster, you cant see whats around the next bend.

Keep us up to date. Best to you.
