Tongue base primary cancer with metastatic left neck SECC and lung nodules

Hi, Anondaughter, I'm sorry I can't recommend any reading material for you, but please do not go on to Google, it is full of  inaccurate information, which can scare the life out of you. I'm sure someone will come along soon with more help for you. All the best to you and your Dad.

Regards Ray.

Hi Can only echo i what old biker has said please keep off DR Google the information on there is mostly out of date at best and at worst will scare you. Trust in your team they will have your dads health in fore front of their plans. They will discuss at a m d t ( multi disciplinary team meetings) Then  they will have a better idea if the way forward. Stick with on here we are people that’s gone through it so to speak . My blig is below I had tonsil cancer with several affected lymph nodes  treated with chemo and radiotherapy.

Hi Anondaughter

Sorry to hear your Dad has had this diagnosis. You are in the right place for help and support though

Macmillan has some useful information. Just click on the links I've created. 

This is a page on  OROPGARYNGEAL CANCER 

You might find this page on TREATMENT OPTIONS useful too

The Cancer Research UK has some useful pages and you could start HERE

Please stay off any Google pages quoting survival statistics in particular. Most are out of date and each one of us is different anyway.

As an aside I have two lung nodules on my CT scan. They are common in older people and most, like mine, are the result of some previous infection (I had pneumonia as a child) and are not cancer. 

Fingers crossed for your Dad and please do pop back with any other questions you might have.

There is a wealth of experience her
