This is also my first time on the site. My Father was told that he had tongue cancer last week. Our family is taking it very had...never tried a tobacco product in his life. He goes for his biopsy on Monday and CAT scan on Tuesday.
He has a lump on his neck, so they are saying that it is in his lymph nodes. Can they tell all of this without doing a biopsy? They are also already telling him that he is an advanced stage an no surgery...chemo & radiation.
One of the many downfalls is that he is self-employed, and to save money on medical insurance, he just cancelled his medical because he can get treated at the VA Hospital in Cleveland for free. I am worried about the treatment that he will get there.
Are there any questions that we should be asking after his biopsy and CAT next week?
