Have had surgery. And the results of the 13 lymph nodes taken were 1 positive. I started over a year ago with hitting my tongue dentist thought my two back teeth were possibly causing this because they were collapsing because of a missing tooth next to them. They conducted a biopsy on tissue on the tongue confirmed it was cancer. The next step was first rest and let this large scar heel bit more next week is my next appointment then I will be referred. Lots of questions
