Having trouble understanding the " Standard of Care" treatment plan I have been saddled with which
is 7 chemo/35 radiation. Not that I will complete all that .
The more prominent cancer treatment centers are at least finally starting to offer more personalized
treatment plans and also trials for HPV driven P16+ if you were to meet their criteria.
So, . Here I am with stage 1 P16+ tonsil cancer being told I need the same plan as a stage3- 4 P16+ tonsil cancer patient. I don't get it . Why is the system so slow to change ?
This particular cancer has been studied and trialed to death for 20 years now. Sheesh.
