Thanks, Anne! I intend to - there is no way that I can just suck it up and live with this kind of pain for years. When this pain hits me, it literally brings tears to my eyes. It's awful and I intend to do something about it - I'm nothing if not persistent (I'm a taurus)... My mother always says the squeaky wheel gets the grease... Squeak, squeak... smile

Carpe Diem!!
38, non-smoker, otherwise perfect health. Biopsy: 3/8/2012, SCC Dx Right Underside Tongue: 3/12/2012, Surgery: 4/11/2012 Partial Gloss + Neck Dissection to remove 29 nodes (all clear). No Rads or Chemo req'd. I believe my SCC was caused by product used in dental work.
