Dear Tom,

I looked back on your first post, and you didn't have a staging at that point. Has your doctor told you exactly what type of treatment you are receiving, and for what?

My husband did very well with the Amnifostine. It helped preserve his saliva glands a lot. Granted, even in the best of circumstances, it's not a picnic, but the treatment was well worth it.

He also received chemo during his radiation. Are you also having to deal with this?

Please know I'm here, and will answer any questions I feel capable of.

Love,
Mandi
