Hi Sue and Mark
I hope You will understand me:)
Ok so,In june 08' I finished my treatment ( I had 30 radiations and 2 chemo-cisplatin and carboplatin) one month after my treatment I had Ct and Pet scan my doctor told me that scans shown something in my left lung,but he didn't know what exactly is in my lung -he told me maybe this is infection-because during my treatment I had really big problem with mucous.So he decided that I will have next ct scan in one month. Next ct scan looked better-I was so happy.
unfortunately month ago I had another ct scan and this time my doctor dold me that i will need biopsy because I still have some spots in my lung ang before i had only 3 spots but this time I have 2 more spots.Two days after biopsy I knew results-I have my second spread but this time to my lung.
I have 2 cicles chemo.i have chemo once a week (Erbitux and docetaxel)
I was looking for someone with the same problem because everyones tells me wow You was diagnosed with tongue cancer and You have spread to your lung,thats why i felt like I am alone with this situation.I had one doctor I mean I had a lot of doctors who told me You should't have this cancer You are so young ,i am not smoking,not drinking-so why me???
Sue can You tell me about Your husband treatment???
