So far I've been told that if I have the jaw rebuilt I may not need the HBO. Only if they put the plate in.
@hrhwilliam I have a consultation July 3rd with an ENT oncologist at VCU to find out about rebuilding the jaw bone like you had done. What questions should I ask? What can you tell me about your experience? How long were you in the hospital, what was the recovery time, feeding tube etc.
Thank you for starting this discussion here. Hopefully once mine is done I can help others.

@pauley hello there! my name is Andrea and I think I’m dealing with the same thing. I’m also being treated at VCU and would love to hear how your surgery went!
