Hi all,
I thought it was an impacted wisdom tooth that really started bothering me around this time last year.
Long story short, I got the official word that it is cancer (malignant) in my left jaw. The oral surgeon that pulled my 5 teeth noticed the swelling was super bad and pulled a biopsy.
I'm now a new patient at Emory in Atlanta.
I just had MRI, PET/CT and CAT scans done this past Thursday so no one really knows a whole lot right now.
Well, except me who knows I'm in a helluva lot a pain most of the time and haven't been able to eat solid foods for many months since I can't open my jaw more than 1 cm.

Well.... here I am.
I needed someone else in boat to talk to.
Eric.
