My name is Linwood, 49 year old male here in Powhatan Virginia. Went to a ENT today for a sore on the bottom side of my tongue after going to Patient First 2 weeks ago and being told it was a canker sore. It has gotten worse and larger. I had a bad feeling about it, considering I HAD been a pack a day smoker for the last 25 years, untill today when I threw them in the trash can.Dr. performed biopsy today on it taking two "plugs". At least he was straight up and told me his strong suspection that it is cancer. I want the info straight up with no sugar-coating.Now just waiting for results. If positive going to have C.T. scans with and without contrast. He said that is the next step after diag. So many things going threw my mind right now. Glad I found this site and know that I'm not alone in my possible battle, cause I dont give up easy! Have a good evening and look forward to sharing with yall.
