Hey guys! I can't stop thinking about this. When they did the surgery they found two tumors the larger tumor was 1.5 cm & 2-3mm deep and the second tumor was .2cm & 1mm deep.

What are your thoughts on this? Have any of you ever had more than one tumor found in your tongue? They were right next to each other with negative/clear margins. Advice appreciated. Just not sure if I should put this to rest, or keep mulling it over.
