Blood work will not show if you have oral cancer. Im not one who recommends the FNA as it usually only has to be redone with a surgical biopsy. Did the second ENT suggest having a biopsy or was he another one to rush into the operating room?

It does sound like both ENTs are decent doctors and are on top of things talking about HPV OC. But, many times a surgeon will take out the problem area only to end up going back in for a bigger surgery. I think (Im not a medical professional, either is anyone else here) it may be a good plan to seek out yet another ENT who specializes in OC. I would ask for a regular biopsy then take it from there with finding a CCC to get a treatment plan. AT a CCC a whole team of specialists will all sit down together with your chart and discuss what is the best way to treat your case. While a surgeon always says surgery and a radiologist always says radiation this will help keep everyone on the same page and the patient will have a better chance to successfully get rid of their cancer. But all this isnt necessary if you dont have cancer. Im hoping you wont have to do any of this and a biopsy will be negative!
