I had a large tumor on the base of my tongue between my tonsils and my voice box. I went to Mayo Clinic in Minnesota but originally I was diagnosed with a biopsy in Las Vegas and then proceeded to go to the mayo clinic in Minnesota. The doctors and surgeons decided to do proton radiation And cisplatin chemo treatment. I went out there in Nov 2022. I went to seven weeks of proton radiation 35 sessions 4 treatments in each session. they treated two lymph nodes and both sides of my tongue through my neck. It took some getting used to, but it was the best decision I ever made. I have been cancer free since I would strongly suggest you consider going to the mayo clinic in Rochester Minnesota. Another good places is Sloan Kettering in New York City but I think Rochester Minnesota is a better place to go to less hustle and bustle If you’d like the correspond with me, feel free to get back to me. I will tell you everything I did to get through all of this.
