He said there is more that needs to be done. I have another appointment this Thursday for the results of the biopsy and discuss what to do next. My mouth hurts a little and is swollen but I guess that is to be expected after removal of teeth. I did not know that dysplasia could invade the bone but I guess it can so the teeth were removed instead of having it turn into something else. Thank you for your kind words.
Diagnosis Date - September 10, 2010 Diagnosis - SCC, T1N0M0, Well Differentiated. Surgery to remove infected gums and three teeth. Clear margins and teeth. Life goes on. My 4 kiddos demand it and keep me sane. My wake-up call and I listened. Have more listening to do.
