Sorry to hear the bad news. As you start your treatment please know you can ask anything you can think of. Someone with similer problems will answer. You have found the best source of info on Head & Neck Cancer on the web.
Many members have had the same treatment you will be receiving and are around to tell us about it. Remember the numbers mean nothing to you. Each case is similier yet different. You can beat this.
Best Wishes, Danny Boy
