Make sure you question the family doc as to how many oral cancers they have seen. Most family doctors are unaware of what oral cancer looks like or its symptoms. In my case, I was very fortunate that my family doc suspected oral cancer or I probably wouldnt still be around.
Please come back and let us know that everything is ok with your husband. Best wishes!
