What is CO2 Laser Tx and why are you getting a Neck Dissection with no positive nodes? I mean are they doing both sides of your neck? And if not, how did they pick one side over the other?

Where are you being seen?

I personally did not and would not let anyone cut my neck(s) open without at least another opinion. In fact, I would get another opinion from a Comprehensive Cancer Center anyway.
