Welcome! You are wise to seek and reach out to this site for information and patient experience. I understand your concern that by reading information regarding oral cancer has opened a door to fear. I frequently peek from behind the door to glean what I can handle. The good news is that someone, if not multiple people have and are going through something similar to you and can honestly answer questions or listen to you vent. Good luck and I hope you will continue to check in.
