@loli, Thank you for joining us today!
The reply from our physicians is "She should undergo follow-up exam by a head and neck cancer specialist for several years after treatment- this exam would look at her mouth, back of tongue, throat, and neck, with periodic imaging to look at her chest and abdomen"
