Hi folks, I am a 57 year young fella learning I'm in a bit of a vacuum regarding information on TORS Only radical oncological tonsillectomy. No Chemo or Rad, had a level 4 selective neck 44 nodes all NO so that good P16+. I have had a strange ride through symptoms that scare me to death and right about now I'm wishing I had done some amount of Rads. Im 6 months post operation and scared its in my cheek! I have had 2 CT's one MRI and now a pet CT as well a NavDX blood test all clear.

Anyhow just saying hello and I will fallow up tonight with more! Hope to find some single modality TORS only folks to compare some notes and fears!

Regards:

James

James: I know nothing about TORS but I have had cancer in my jaw removed surgically and many lymph nodes removed from my neck that were clean so no radiation or chemo. and I'm still clean.
That was in just six years ago so if that helps calm your worries about not having rads, that will be great. Keep working that property!
