I'm having my partial glossectomy two days before you and totally understand your fears. They will be expanding upon some surgery I had in October 2010 because not all the carcinoma in situ was removed at that time. Periodically I feel pain behind the old scar and sometimes it refers up into my ear which sends my brain into a tizzy- but like you all my scans came back clear so that is what we both must focus on. Best of luck on the 4th! I'll be thinking about you!!!
