Hello, I just had a sore throat that didn’t get better after two courses of antibiotics. Then went to ENT doctor and was told had tonsil cancer. This was in Georgia came down to Mayo Clinic for biopsy , ct scan and pet scan. I noticed swollen lymph node and had sore throat. I have no other pain. No bone pain. I am 69 and otherwise healthy and active. It is HPV +16. The clinical trial is immunotherapy. I guess my question was is anyone else with stage 4 tonsil cancer and how are there treatments going.
Thank you for your reply.
