Hello,
I have recently been diagnosed with HPV-associated squamous cell carcinoma to the base of my tongue. No lymphnode involvment and no metastasis. I am 71 and live in the USA. I am due to start radio- and chemo-therapy in a week or two.
I need some pointers on where to go on the site for support in handling the treatments.
Thank you!
