Thanks Mark for the reply. My problem is I raise yorkies and birds. I have 7 yorks and 73 birds at the moment. I have lots of babies to sell. I rarely leave my home let alone be gone for 7-10 days. These are my babies. I am hoping since they "think" this is very early AND just localized to my tongue that surgery will not be necessary.

The surgery sounds nothing short of a specialized neck slashing. I am going to learn more about lazer and other options. I live in a fairly small town and the surgeon only does about 2 of these a year. Hopefully I can find someone a little more experienced and not as invasive.

Of course I will do what is necessary, but have to look at all my choices. The problem is the choices will differ form one professional to another. That is where the confusion will come in at.
