A Million apologies to Tianara for asking my worry on her post but I am on a learning curve when it comes to posting, blogging. Sufficent to say that 3 months ago this site and the old timers on it saved my sanity.

all I can say is that with more results you become more calm whatever the dx and you aquire the skills and knowledge to go forward and stay positive. I hope as the other posters suggest this might be some simple non cancers tongue issue SORRY DUFF BEER MOMENT AGAIN and you only visit as a supporter, if things prove a little more invoved you have come to the right club. YOU ARE NOW A FULL MEMBER my cancer has been a kick up the rear and my life is improving by the day and I am getting support from friends and family that I thought I had lost conections with hope you can find some positives in this thing.
this is a club Grouch Marx would refuse to jion? and he smoked cigars.
Carry on Regardless.
