I'm not sure the exact name of my cancer.  I just had a nodule removed from vocal cord.  I am told I will now need rafdiation for 6 weeks 5 days a week along with a PEG tube as throat will be too sore to eat.  Has anyone else had this ame thing?

    Check out the Head and Neck discussion board

    I don't have your type of cancer so I can't answer your specific question, but I recommend you repost your question on the cancer-specific section named "Head and Neck Cancer. There you can also search for the terms "vocal cord" and "peg" and find lots of posts from others on the same subjects.

    I hope your treatment goes well.
