Joined: Dec 2003 Posts: 2,606 Likes: 2 | In my case, I had 2 lymph nodes involved and at times I wish I would have had the surgery, too. Statistically, it did not increase my probabilties but 18 months later, it is a moot point (I hope).
I saw the ENT ever 4 weeks for about 6 months, 6 weeks for about 6 months and now have moved to 8 weeks because of the stage and mets.
