Hi, After 7 years cancer free, I got a suprise. Alump showed up on my tongue. 1st. biopsy clear, it grew back and showed some irregular cells.Then after 7 months it grew back! This time cat scan and surgery. Scan clean and surgery removed everything till only clear cells. I can hardly talk and my head feels like it was in a vice, probably was. It's been a long time for me, what do I do now, just watch it with my ENT, keep a eye out for a new site? Any advice?

What did the biopsy say?

I'm with David, what did the biopsy say it was? Lots of things go on on the tongue.

Sorry, The biopsy before this surgery and Cat scan showed Squeamus cell.I have not gotten the new one from the surgery.I guess I am a bit tense about this wondering where will it be next.I am a stage 4 survivor, floor of mouth, about 4 inches of jaw removed.I had a flap from my leg that failed, so they rebuilt my face from shoulder and arm.I do not have a lot of flesh left on the bottom of my face to work with.I have a metal bar for a jaw bone.If the cancer would come back again, they would have to remove bar, and then I would have trouble eating and talking.I may just be buying trouble worrying about this but this is not a road I want to go down.gnelson
