Our friend has stage 4 tonsil cancer. he went by way of alternative treatment and did radiation and hyperthermia treatment. This started in Fall of 2009. It worked until February of this year. He was given a high dose of steroids that made him very ill. While he was being weaned off the steroids for two months his tumor markers went up. He is stage four and can't eat or drink. He is in Los Angeles and just wanted to know where to go from here. They are looking at taking him to City of Hope. Thank you for your time.
