Joined: Jun 2007 Posts: 5,260 | Damn, that sounds like my Oncologist and Ohio State James Cancer Center. Ohio Stae just operated and said no Rads or Chemo and my Oncologist wanted Rads and Chemo Ist before surgery if they rads and chemo didn't shrink it. Oncologist was right. OSU did the surgery and the cancer came back, 2 more surgeries there to take more of my tonge, then as most know, then the teeth left for Rad Seed Implants locally to kill the Cancer. It feels like it came back to visit but I see my Oncologist Wed.
