in Head and Neck Cancer #1

I am a 3 1/2 year survior of HPV positive Tonsil cancer and finished 6 weeks of IMRT with no chemo 3 1/2 years ago. I got 70 GY on the left side of my neck and 35 GY on the right side. Other than some dry mouth which has imroved significantly since treatment,  I am doing great. The following video talks about de-escaltion of treatment.
