Dave,

I went to three doctors. Mt GP said he had seen cancer and this was not cancer. He did send me to an oral surgeon because I insisted on a second opinion. The Oral surgeon (who had treated many oral cancers) said this was not oral cancer. Since he could not tell me exactly what it was I asked for another opinion. He sent me to an ENT. Guess what? Oral Cancer.

The ENT let me know that oral cancer is fairly hard to detect by eye at very early stages (it just doesn�t pop out at you) most doctors detect it in advanced stages. The earlier you get these things the better. Get to another doctor and ask for a biopsy.
