Hi @cindyc57 and welcome. You should probably go to another facility if you are not getting the help you need where you are. How do you know you have an HPV16+ type SSC mass? How has this been diagnosed and when was the biopsy done?
No one here can diagnose you. We are not doctors, we are patients who have been through or are in the middle of cancer treatments. We will be happy to work with you as you navigate treatment. We can walk with you as you get help but we cannot carry you. Please see a doctor such as an Ear/Nose/Throat doctor and let me know what is going on. In the mean time be concerned but try not to worry as worry never changes the outcome.
