@jmslyle I’m so happy that your treatment went so well. That is awesome news. It’s a long journey and a scary one too. I go a MRI in August. So praying it’s good news. Thank you for sharing your story.

Thank you. I did a lot of research on my own before surgery. I only went to reputable websites like Mayo Clinic, Cleveland Clinic, Harvard Medical, and John Hopkins.

I visited with a dietitian recommended by my primary physician and she suggested the book Keto for Cancer, which I purchased.

I also have strong faith. I was trusting God to get me through this, and He did.

Only 20% of parotid tumors are cancerous. My first cousin had a parotid tumor and was in the 80% that was non cancerous. Praying and trusting you will be in that 80% benign group, too.
