I looked at my Dr. first words out of my mouth my cell phone caused this to happen. He smirked and didn't say anything he probably thought she's nuts. That was April of 2009 way before anything came out about cell phones and radiation warning they want to put on the phones. Yes, I was a smoker and an occasional drink.
The reason I feel it was my cell phone. I talk on it daily to my clients, family, friends etc etc..., no land-line. For the last couple of years I would have a red mark on the side of my face after using my cell phone, left side just above my jaw bone. I went to the dermatologist he gave me cream to use he didn't know what it was, I never thought about it being my cell phone. January of this year a sore developed on the side of my tongue the same place the rash (rash would come and go) was on the side of my face. I went to the dentist he dismissed it twice gave me a mouth wash ha!!! Long story cut it short my Dentisit of 11 years and twice a year visits didn't give a damn. There is nothing I can do about him not giving a damn either. Every day I think I'd like to smack him right upside the head. Biopsy right away don't dismiss it. If he did his job in January just maybe I wouldn't have gone through the misery.
Back to the cell phone. I've had a cell phone for 10 plus years. I have a rash (comes and goes) on the side of my cheek and a sore on the side of my tongue same side. When I used my cell phone I could feel a vibration in my cheek, red itchy rash on the side of my face. When I put my finger on my cheek where the rash was it is exactly where the sore was on my tongue.
I'm going with my cell phone nothing will change my mind I guess I'm hard headed. I talked to Jerry when I posted long ago I told him I think my cell phone caused the cancer.
When I use my cell phone now I can feel a vibration in my hand I also use speaker phone. Whenever I can I set the phone down and talk, very paranoid. I feel in the coming years you're going to see a lot about cell phones and cancer.
Now hearing cell phones MIGHT cause brain tumors when I get headaches the first thing I think brain tumor. I know it sounds crazy, but I'm not a crazy lady I think I'm realistic.
Look at all the kids using cell phones all the time not healthy.
This is my story and I'm sticking to it.
