All I can add to the above posts is that time is an issue here. Please push on for another opinion as soon as possible and get started on treatment! You mentioned that there are "pretty devastating long term effects" from radiation but having done 7 weeks with chemo over 2 years ago the long term effects aren't that big of a deal!! Go for the gold and be as aggressive as you can be in fighting this beast! You are in my prayers! - Kris
SCC Stage IV left tonsil neck disection 3/02 radiation finished 6/02 chemo finished 9/02

Every day is still a gift :-)
