More than 85% of all head and neck cancers are oral cancers. Thyroid cancer is an endocrine cancer caused differently and falls into different treatment protocols. You are welcome to be part of our family. We all have to stick together when it comes to this disease. Oral, head and neck, whatever you call it.... we are in the same boat for the most part.
