One medical oncologist suggested to take a anti inflamotory medication for a week and MRI after that. He would decide the treatment based on MRI results. He only wanted to talk to us on the condition and treatment options after he looks at MRI after a week.

The second surgical oncologist we saw said he cannot give much hope at this point (did not share much information as to why). He referred us to a medical oncologist who specializes in chemotherapy who seemed to share the surgical oncologist's opinion. The chemotherapist suggested any treatment at this point is only palliative and any recurrant head and neck cancer cannot be completely treated. He suggested palliative chemotherpy and if we wanted and able to afford he could consider cetuximab or biomab.

1) would cetuximab (ertibux) or biomab (indian version of ertibux) help with recurrant head and neck cancers.
2) This is the 3rd doctor who suggested without any PET, CT or MRI (only basing on biopsy and physical examination) that any treatment is only pallative. Is this truly thee case that there is no hope for treatment.
3) finally i think we need a real oncologist someone who truly cares and knows what he is doing. Any references to such doctors in India especially in banglore is highly appreciated.
