I think I have this correct now. I had the most trouble always getting on before when I was a user. I hope I have this figured out now.

Timothy6003 here. I was diagnosed stage III base of tonge w/ 1 lymph node involved SCC HPV+ back in October 2011. My last radiation was January 2012.

My treatments consisted of only Erbitux, 6 doses and Radiation 37 sessions.

As of this day all of my scans have come back clear / NED
