Welcome to OCF! You will find all the info and support you need right here. Glad you have found the forum! There are also many pages of excellent info on the main OCF pages too. Please take some time to read the main pages about diagnosis, it will help you.

Hopefully your test comes back that its nothing serious! Its NOT cancer til the biopsy says it is.

Hope you have quit smoking! If not now is the time to do it. I was a smoker too and it took cancer for me to throw out the cigs. While smoking was the worst thing I could have done to my body, quitting was the best.

Please dont be so hard on yourself!!!! If (and that is a huge IF at this point) you have cancer then whats to say you cant have a decent life after you get treated? One thing cancer does to people is force them to face their own mortality which is a real eye opener. Another thing is guilt, especially if you had been a smoker. Do yourself a favor and think positive about the good things you have going on in your life.

Good luck and please keep us posted.
