Hello Belgium1937

I'm sorry to hear that you've recently been diagnosed with tongue cancer and that you now find yourself having to make a decision about monitoring or treatment options. It's understandable that you want to make sure you make the right decision for you. 

We have some information about treatment for tongue cancer on our website. You might also want to have a look at this thread as well as this thread where many people have shared their experiences of treatment for oral cancers. 

With regard to your question about proton therapy, I'd suggest giving our team of nurses a call. I know they will be happy to offer any advice, information and support they can. They're available Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm on 0808 800 4040. 

Whatever choice you make Belgium1937, I hope things go well for you. 

Best wishes,
