Hello,
My name is Kimberly. I am 49. I have a husband of 19 years and a teen daughter. I am scared. My tongue swelled up last week, went to a dr in nova while on a vacation / business trip with my husband. They just called me today, I was told it was superficial cancer. That was all he could say.
My daughter and I are alone here. My hubby is back in va working. I can't seem to sleep,eat or breathe. I quit smoking 20 years ago, don't drink and this came as a shock.
I honestly thought it was a food allergy. My dr here is sending me to a dr at upmc on Thursday. They said it's best to get another opinion. But the dr in va did two tests and sent them to 2 different labs.
Anyone in Pittsburgh? Can you recommend a family support group?
Thanks for reading my story.
Kimberly ann
