Its better to be safe than sorry. I know its difficult waiting for the biopsy, then you will probably have to wait another week until the results come back. Try to keep yourself very busy to help keep your mind off the "what if's". Im glad to hear you have stopped using dip. All tobacco products have many chemicals in them that can irritate your mouth. Please let this be a wake up call to never return to using tobacco. Best wishes with your biopsy, hope it turns out to be nothing serious.
