I'm assuming it's in the mandible? You didn't say... If so then maybe a mandiblectomy with a rebuild - a few here have been through that. You'll probably know more once you've been staged and know the differentiation. That will likely make a big difference in how the treat you. Well differentiated vs aggressive. Fingers crossed its small, and slow growing. Regardless we're here for you, and the treatment will likely be similar to what we've all had so we're here. Do do your homework, read up, and look at who's available and familiar with your disease in your neck of the woods. Try not to freak but do feel free to vent. Hugs!
