I was diagnosed in May, started radiation & cisplatin in July, completed 30 radiations over 6 weeks and 6 cisplatin treatments( I opted out of last week). Make sure they did a blood HPV test before starting treatment( Naveris) and following completion of treatment blood DNA should be undetectable which strongly supports curative therapy.

You didn’t have chemotherapy? Because they suggested 35 sessions of radiotherapy and one chemotherapy after the third week.
