It treats everyone differently as well as side effects from treatment.
I have been blessed with my ENt he has been very informative and showed his concern during the whole treatment. When I first went to him with my scans he wanted to be definately sure what he was dealing with so he encouraged a biopsy. of course with everyone's schedule it was about a week and a half before he could do this and then back to the office to find out about 5 days later.
After the biopsy and finding out it was SCC appointments were schedule the next week witht he rad and onc doctors and then the rush to get started!
You will be fine. 2 weeks is okay better than months!! Take care and do not add more worry to what you do not need to. Love Terry
