I had a hemiglossectomy and lymph node removal 14 yrs ago - followed by radiation and chemo therapy. This past fall I had a sore throat, after antibiotics I knew something was off - I went to see my original surgeon. I now have a new primary - on my tonsil and part of my palate - the only option is now surgery - has anyone had this happen ? Has anyone been reradiated after 14 yrs? Thanks♥️
