Oral cancer moves quickly. If you had a sore for over a year and it was cancerous you would probably have become very ill by now.

Please add a signature when you have time. It helps us to know what treatments you have gone thru. Have you had radiation or surgery and when? Have you had oral cancer before? I went back and read some of your older posts but must have missed this info. To add the signature, click on the My Stuff heading then on profile. Type your info in the box at the bottom of the page.


Best of luck with your appointment tomorrow. Hope it turns out to be nothing wrong.
