From your first post it was not clear to me where you areas were located. Several people here as well a many of my patients over the years have discovered the papilaes that Imnetioned and thought they were cancer. Fig 1.38 shows exactly what I was referring to.
Good luck on Friday and I'm sure that if the surgeon feels that a biopsy is indicated, he would do it right then and there and save you a return trip.
