I have had a mouth ulcer for a few months and got concerned about it and went to see my doctor who referred me to hospital for biopsy. Today I got to know that it is a tongue scc (Squamous cell carcinoma) or tongue cancer in other words.
I am going through other screen tests at the moment and will have to go my way through all the treatment to survive.
It is 8 months since your last post. I wonder how you are doing now?
Cheers
Max
