 Christine is right go do something until your appointment you will drive yourself to the looney bin. I know easier said than done, but I was right where you are today March 2009, we've all been where you are today.  My imagination ran wild the minute the 2nd Dentist said it looks like cancer. Whatever I said or did I didn't get in to see the Oral Surgeon any sooner. I waited 2 weeks for an appointment. At least you have an appointment on the 8th unless you call around to other Oral Surgeon's to see if one can get you in sooner. I made calls, 2 to 3 weeks in some cases was the earliest I could get in, BUT once I saw him I had to wait another week for the biopsy to be done, I guess that's the way it is.
