Hi Lola, I hope you don't mind me asking, how did the cancer on the left side show up (the re-occurance)? I have lost about 70% of my tongne on the right side and I don't have very good feeling in what is left of my tongue. It kinda burns all the time. Anyway, I can't really see into the back of my tongue cause of limited visibility, so how did you know that something was wrong?
