Hi there. I am 66 year old male, in my last week of chemo and radiation for Stage III Base of Tongue Cancer. There will be a couple of rough week post-treatment I have been forewarned, but all in all it hasn’t been too wretched an experience (as wretched experiences go). Lots of fatigue, but hopefully you don’t have to keep working. Got a feeding tube, which I consider essential for adequate nutrition and hydration. I only lost 10 pounds, more or less. People who try to get by without one and lose a bunch of weight will suffer accordingly, IMHO. Have not thrown up once, thanks to Zofran. Taking Norco twice a day as a preventative, but plan on weaning off soon. Due to the radiation the skin on my neck has gotten pretty scorched, but lots of Aquaphor (messy), Miaderm, ask the doc about Lidocaine. I am getting ahead of myself, there are immunotherapy drugs that might be more appropriate in your situation. But don’t give up the ship quite yet. But if you do go chemo/radiation, the experience might nor be as horrible as you think. Good luck!
