Saw my oncologist. She said no way could it have come back this quickly, took a look, said it was surface irritation and even if it doesn't heal in a week that if I come back we will ONLY be looking at ways to heal it. Thank god.
Still have that little voice in my head saying "it still could be" but I'm ignoring it. It would be easier if it just healed.
Have anyone of you injured your tongue post treatment and it took a while to heal?
