Hi guys, would like to know it you had this or seen something alike. About 2 ou 3 times a month i woke up with a blood stain in my tongue. It�s only a stain that shows in the morning, and never during day or night. I didn�t had it before cancer, but when I was a kid i had several times my nose bleeding during night. I nad some "respiraion" problems like nose obstruction and sinisuties. A friend of mine (wich is a doctor too) told me that�s sinusities relation, but you know, since I had cancer once you are never out of worries. Tomorrow I�ll see my doc as a routing consultation. My last 2 MRIs were normal. Any ideas?

Where on your tongue was the stain? Was it near you surgery site?
It's probably nothing,of course - but good you are seeing your doc.
My doc gave me a sinus rinse when one of my nostrils wouldn't stop dripping after my treatments.
I never did have to use it. My nose stop dripping the day he gave it to me. Perhaps my dripping nostril knew I was doing something about it...

But I've heard they are great. Much better than an enema. (hahahaha)

Have you ever used a sinus rinse?

Let us know what your doctor says.

I used a long time ago... The same friend told me to use that. smile
Oh, the stain is far from my surgery, the stain is always in the top of the tongue, not on the backside...
