Whoops!
Vixdad and I went to see the surgeon today. He said the tumor is my mouth is almost completely eradicated and confirmed what the Radiation Oncologist said Monday about the lump in my neck being smaller!! He says we will finish up treatment on the 29th and then it will take about 3 months for me to get back enough feeling in my throat and mouth to begin eating by mouth again. About 3 months after I finish treatment they will do another full body scan to seeif there are any stray cancer cells left. If there are, I may need surgery, however at this point he said to be he expects a full recovery with no surgery necesarry!!!I meet with the Chemo Oncologist this afternoon for her review

Hmm... I wonder if I can make a stop by DR FJL's place before I head out of town this afernoon...
Such great news, Vixmom!I hope the surgeon was unaware that his office staff was being rude to patients and now they are polite to everyone.
...it will take about 3 months for me to get back enough feeling in my throat and mouth to begin eating by mouth again.
