Joined: Feb 2010 Posts: 38 | I, too have just been diagnosed, having an MRI Friday, and scheduling surgery within the next few weeks. I appreciate the advice to eat, and I am going to the fridge for some ravioli as we speak. I have already lost 20 pounds because of the ulcer on my tongue, so do not want to lose too much more. Proud to weigh what I did when hubby and I met 18 years ago, but unfortunate that it is due to SCC.
