As some of you may have read I was wanting to get a more precise name on the type of cancer my husband has and we got it today. We met with the MO this morning and our planned course of TX at this time is the 35x radiation and 7x cisplatin. Tomorrow is our mask fitting, radiation planning session and PET Scan. If the scan is not clean then we will meet again regarding TX.
Has anyone had or known someone to have this type of cancer?
