Joined: May 2002 Posts: 2,152 | Your original post indicated two areas of concern, one on the rib and one in the back of neck. Not certain which one got the positive biopsy. I'm not a doctor but one usually can not receive radiation to the same area twice, which means the treatment option is most likely surgical and/or Erbitux or some one of these other new drugs. Here's hoping it is just a little more neck surgery and that's it. Did they do any follow up on the spot on the rib? Take care, Eileen
