My husband is on his third week of chemo and radiation for neck cancer very close to where yours was. The side effects are much worse this third week than before and I suppose will only get worse. He doesn't have a feeding tube yet, and we are hoping and praying he can get enough nutrition in without going there. I just discovered your channel and will review more to give me some insight to what to expect. Hope you are still well and cancer free. All the best!

Im here watching these videos becaus i have stage 4 tongue cancer. My first chemo is a week from today. Im hoping this info will help prepare me for whats coming. Thanks for sharing

I’m 5 weeks post treatments for tongue cancer. 6 weeks chemo, 35 radiation treatments. The one thing that got me thru was mixing 4oz of high calorie boost and 4oz chocolate milk. 5-6 times a day. Around 1800 cal/day. At 5 weeks out my saliva has returned about 70% and taste about the same. Food still tastes off but I can deal with it. I notice very small improvements everyday. All the pain in swollowing is gone and can eat most solid food. You will adjust to the new normal. Not the same as before but better than death.

Thank you for your kindness and generosity in creating and uploading videos. I am sure you know you are helping many, many, many people here in the States and world-wide. There is no better work than helping others (my 2 cents). Thank you very much once again.

I think i have throat cancer cause my ears ache my throat hurts it hadd to breathe and its hard to swallow 😭😔

What about leukoplakia

Carnivore diet

Hi all, I have also HPV Cancer in 3 areas around the base of the tongue, lymph node and tonsil, It started with ear ache 6 Months ago. I had the CT, MRIs and biopsy which found the Cancer. My mask was made and I began treatment just 2 weeks ago and is ongoing, 10 sessions of Radiotherapy down and 1 Chemo. Weekends off for good behaviour, already lost taste, and ability to swallow anything other than liquid, shakes are Ok but difficult with real food, I did batch cook lots of soups, I know there is worst times ahead, just want to be over, start session 11 tomorrow and next week my second 18hr Chemo, just hope we are able to get through that with not much pain, just wanted to share my thoughts and wish you all well.

Had stage four back of the tongue cancer 2009. Treatment was chemo and then chemo and radiation together. After treatment carried the water bottle around for the first year or so. every night I use Colgate Gel Cam for about 5 to 10 minutes in trays before I go to bed. This will keep my mouth from being dry up for about 3 to 4 hours. Then I wake up with a dry mouth and take two or three swigs of water and chew mentos gum, keeping the gum in my mouth which helps keep my mouth closed and will last at least another couple hours. If I wake up again, I repeat with the gum and water. Before I left MD Anderson, the head dentist said do not let your mouth get dry or you’ll have cavities and if you have cavities, it may cause your jawbone to disintegrate. Scared the H out of me. They recommended to me the Gel Cam and I haven’t missed a night taking it in 15 years.

What type of radiation treatments did you have I been diagnosed with metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of neck with unknown primary radiation Dr wants to do radiation therapy IMRT ?

Where are the comments?

I too had throat cancer on my vocal cords. Thirty six radiation treatments and now I live in cancer free never give up be grateful and praise God good luck

''''The major finding of our study is that RGE had a novel therapeutic effect against even the most aggressive models of malignancy in mice only when injected. The treated mice did not display any adverse side-effect in terms of behavior and physical appearance from receiving daily injections of RGE. Necropsy also failed to find any abnormality in any organ and tissue of the treated mice either from the malignancies or from the injected RGE. One novel aspect of the injected RGE was its ability to cure the most aggressive mouse cancer models that cannot be cured by any conventional therapy ''' Since then NO CLINICAL TRIALS, despite a100 per cent cure .....

I am 16 years old and I found out I got neck cancer I don't know what to do im to scared to tell my parents

I was diagnosed with breast cancer 32 years ago. I chose to be treated at an excellent cancer hospital and I did what the doctors told me to do. Now, I'm 32 years cancer free and considered cured. I hope that you can say the same some day. 👍👍👍

Did you suffer from shortness of breath at the beginning of the disease?

Thanks so much for that information, can't wait to be able to taste food again

Thank you so much Dr Obaz for all you do for so many during their unexpected hsv outbreak. I know at least three other women who were patients of yours, and all felt deeply cared for. I am grateful for the gentleness and care you’ve shown me too🔋..

Hey buddy. I had cervical.cancer many years ago. I am 76 and work as a police volunteer and psychic. God please cure this dear soul.

I’m 2 weeks post treatments. 7 chemo, 35 radiation. One thing that really helped me was exercising throat, tongue, neck everyday from week 1. I never needed a feeding tube although it would of been nice at times. I would mix boost with chocolate milk. 4oz each 6 times a day. Still lost 25lbs but it got me thru . I’m 10 days post treatments now and can eat soft foods already. Can’t taste much but it’s getting better every day. Pain in my throat has reduced by 50% and thick saliva is starting to go away. Listen to your speech therapist. The suggestion they give may seem like there doing nothing but it makes a huge difference at the end.

I’ve lost my hearing, and my ability to talk. I am taking weekly infusion treatments to try to extend my life. I’m terminal.

Ivermectin!!

God bless you

Start chemo(cisplatin) and radiation June 10th, I have a trach and peg. What should I look for and I can’t talk, with the mass I On my tongue. How can I reach out to you

Did you have leukoplakia

Did you have leukoplakia

I have been through the treatments and I came out great. The only problem I had was that they pulled all teeth before treatments and so limited on foods. But good news is that you will get better!

Thank you and your video is so accurate going through these same symptoms with my mom after all these radiation treatments.

My husband had throat cancer , In 2017.. he’s got permanent side effects from it. Paralyzed vocal cords. He was stage 4. I would fix a pot of beans for him quite often for the protein and he put hot sauce and pico in it . He was on a feeding tube for a year, the only thing he liked was my pot of beans. You are doing very well, it seems. My husband’s damage is significant but he’s grateful to be alive. The treatments though have also caused permanent side effects, such as ED. It’s extremely hard for us both but he’s terrified to take any meds for it.

Ice cream??? Cancer feeds on sugar.

If this is true why isn’t it plastered all over the news?

Keep fighting. Don't give up. Stay determined. Do whatever it takes

Thank al lot m from Limpopo,m starting m radiation soon,m soo scared

Thanks for a wonderful run through of what you have gone through. I can tell everybody that you haven't sugar coated it and yes, everybody's symptons and treatment will be different. I was lucky in one way because although I was told that I would not be able to swallow and that I would lose my speech for a time....well, I didn't lose my swallowing power totally so I thank god for that because it has made it a lot easier on getting back to normal. I had 30 sessions of radiotherapy only over six weeks on my neck and tonsil area where the cancer had got into the nodes.....but a lot of what happened to you did happen to me. I am 3 weeks post therapy at moment....the soreness and ulcers in mouth are gradually going away but the lack of saliva and dry mouth are still with me which makes eating difficult at times and so I do resort to using the feeding tube in my stomach and the special bottles of food which have been supplied to me by the hospital. Your description of the mask is spot on...I am not claustrophobic but I hated it and especially when I felt the last click of the buttons which held you down firm for then that was the time I wanted to swallow the most.... so when the radiotherapy machine started doing its business I used to count the number of whirring noises it made and then I knew how far I was from being released again from the mask. Thank you and good luck to you for making the video and to everybody else who is going through a similar experience...YOU WILL COME OUT THE OTHER SIDE OK...BUT IT MAY TAKE A FEW MONTHS.

Thanks for sharing gives me hope.

Thanks for sharing, going into my second week and i not doing too well, the cisplatin is causing me issues, eating and constipation. lost 8 pounds and they weren't too happy about it, i need to watch your video of the tube, trying my best to avoid getting it, we shall see.

One of the most frustrating things i hear is people claiming they have a cure for cancer but just won't release it. Such nonsense, Cancer cost the economy , Pharm making money doesn't help the country. If the was a cure someone would of licensed it and made possible trillion. Even you or i would pay privately £5-10,,-20k to live. Having a cure doesn't mean the wouldn't be cancer . We have antibiotics , that get used by everyone

I CAN'T STOP THANKING MY WONDERFUL HERBAL Dr Kuriama FOR WHAT HE HAS DONE FOR ME . I want to appreciate dr kuriama, it more than few months now since I last felt herpes virus on my body. I still can't believe I am totally cured of the infectious disease, all thanks to Dr Kuriama for his natural herbal medicine. the doctor cures the following infection or disease such as HSV, HVP, Diabetes, Cancer, Hepatitis and others STDs. reach him on his CZcams handle Dr Kuriama .....

Hi Lee! I think you missed a class of medication that this drug (probably) falls into: small molecules/TKI's. These are already widely used as a form of cancer treatment and they (mostly) target proteins, often quite specific to cancer cells. Examples include CDK4/6 inhibitors for breast cancer, ALK inhibitors for lung cancer, PARP inhibitors for BRCA mutated cancers, etc. The side effects can differ widely between the class of medication!

I have stage 4 tonsil cancer. I go for the mask fitting in the morning & start 35 sessions of radiotherapy in 2 weeks. I will also be having a session of chemo at the beginning & another one in the middle of the radiotherapy. So far the procedures I have had are, right tonsil out, feeding peg fitted & several teeth out.

Hi Great video ! I had base of tongue cancer caused by HPV ! I had 6 weeks a radio and the pain after was indescribable ! I never left the bedroom for 3 months ! I lost nearly 3 stone ! I did have a PEG and that saved my life as no way could I eat for months ! I was on morphine every 4 hrs which helped a bit but not that much to be honest ! 1 year on and I still have no taste but I have put weight on ! the journey has been very very tough you cant sugar coat it the pain was horrific ! I have appts every 6-8 weeks where I have the camera to check all is clear and up to now it is but if I am unlucky and it does return I could not go through that again no way ! I was told I have a 90% chance of survival as it was HPV so my chances are really good !

Hello. Stage 3 HPV positve SCC at the base of tongue. I finished my last treatment a month ago. 70 grey over 35 sessions and 6 chemo sessions of cisplatin. Had my first CT this past week. Results were encouraging. My problem is eating and drinking. I can somewhat taste the food or drink, i just cant bring myself to swallow. Im lucky if i get 30 oz. of water a day snd i haven't eaten a meal in a couple of weeks! This has left me week, dizzy and lethargic to say the least. The meal replacements make me sick to my stomach. Do you have any advice? Thanks!

I am in the beginning of diagnosis. Went to ENT, had 1 CT scan, and Endoscopy. Left tonsil assymetrical and enlarged lymph gland next to it. Going for another CT scan in two weeks and then back to doctor. Lee, did they remove your tonsil before treatment? I don't know if I am up to all this.

Excellent video, excellent voice.

I was diagnosed with terminal cancer nearly 4 years ago. Stage 4 in my eusophagus, stomach and lymph nodes. I have to do treatment for the rest of my life. Be positive. You can beat this.

OMG, have just been diagnosed a few hours ago with tonsil cancer that has spread to neck lymph nodes. So glad I found your videos, am binge watching them. However, I had not considered at all that I may not be able to take my medications. My Epilim is like a bloody horse tablet (well, maybe not quite that large) - I am certainly going to have to ask about that one as I don't want my epilepsy to return.

I’m supposed to have a mask made and I’m so nervous and claustrophobic how can I get past that they may need prescribe me something everytime

As a HNSCC survivor, I have only one very important piece of advice. If your Doctor advises to have a PEG feeding tube, do not hesitate or over think this part of the treatment. IT WILL SAVE YOUR LIFE! You will looses weight, you will become nutritionally challenged, but you MUST continue to maintain a caloric intake. It is imperative to surviving the chemo-radiation treatments, and to making a recovery to normal life. Good luck and Godspeed to all who must face this disease.

Will this drug be able to work on blood cancers or only solid tumors?
