My SO was diagnosed with ssc on the floor of the mouth. He had a CT scan showing 2 lymph nodes that need to come out also. Yesterday we were told that surgery is going to be scheduled. My SO concern is that the cancer will spread more by next week while he waits for scheduling. has anyone had to wait long for surgery for floor if the mouth cancer? We are real new to this and just trying to learn what to expect and learn from anyone who has gone through or us going through this.Thanks for your help.
