Well after 10 weeks from surgery a new growth came back in the same location which tells me my surgeon didn't get all of the cancer from my tongue. So, I'm going on February 9th to have this new growth biopsied and removed at the same time. Then I will be looking into radiation. When I had the first surgery my surgeon told me she removed it all from my tongue. Being new to this, with that news and supposedly clean lymph nodes, I figured I would take my chances and not do the radiation. However, learning now the possibility exists that some cancer can be left behind after surgery changes my mind about the radiation. Hate to do it but I believe I have no choice at this point.
