What caused the tonsil bleed? That I never had -just a big tan rubbery tumor. I was originally scheduled for three Cisplatin treatments also and the tumor responded so well they dropped the last one so I just had 2. Just as well, I reacted very poorly to the second Cisplatin session. Three weeks into radiation it had completely melted away. There was no trace of it in the 3 week CT scan nor has there been since.
Congratulations on your marriage!
