I want to know about Squamous cell carcinoma.
Sent to Health Experts January 26 04:05 PM

I am a 89 year old woman that has just been diagnosed with a Squamous cell carcinoma on my tounge. The glands in my neck are also involed. I am very thin and weak and I don"t know if I can make it through the kemo(not sure how to spell that) and radiation therapy that the Doctor is wanting me to have. Is there any other treatment for this that would not be so toxic and has worked as well?

Optional Information:
Female , Age: 89

Already Tried:
Nothing. I have just found out I have this.
