Sorry to hear that you have it.
I was diagnosed with tongue SCC last month and had my surgery last monday and am recovering now. I am 25 y.o. non-smoker, I don't misuse alcohol and generally eat healthy food... there are people who smoke and drink for 50 years and don't get any oral cancer... you never know..
i think cancer is about our inner state. my last year (or two years) were extremely stressful that i think have resulted in this nasty desease.. we should live in harmony with ourselves and not to worry too much.. then all deseases will pass by
25/09/12 - diagnosis: lateral left side tongue moderate SCC (10-15mm)
15/10/12 - operation: partial glossectomy + neck dissection
17/11/12 - operation: excision of the tongue scar (or extensive biopsy)
26 y.o., non-smoker, social drinker
