Michele,

It sounds like you have been doing everything the ENT told you to do. The important thing is you have not been ignoring the pain. A lot of us here have dealt with what you are going through. I started looking into an "ulcer" I had on my tongue and after a year it was suggested that I get a biopsy and that is when I was diagnosed.

Have you already made an appointment at Sloan?
