Liz and Amy,

Thanks for the reply, think we'll see if she keeps declining and maybe at that point see her oncologist. He saw her two weeks post treatment and said he would see her again in 3 months. She saw her radiologist at the same time, but will see her in 4 more weeks again. She still sees her HN surgeon and will also see him in 4 more weeks. Seems her oncologist would want to see her more often, but said to call if anything changed. She does have a tumor in the lung, but it hasn't changed since she began her radiation and chemo, just stayed the same. It's the fifth location this cancer has spread to. She's been thru so much and I love her dearly and feel really concerned when we see progress, and then we seem to back pedal. Hope it's just be part of the healing process. Thank you again for your input, I really appreciate it.

Nancy
