Thanks to everyone who replied. I didn't know there were actually ENTs who specialize in Oral Cancer. I don't really know what to do at this point... I mean the one I am currently seeing is familiar with my case. If I have any more problems with things like stitches not holding right, etc.... I will have to make a switch. There are other ENTs at the practice were my ENT is. I think he is the head ENT.... But maybe I should ask him if there is one there who actually specializes in this area?!

One thing I didn't mention is that I have a severely Autistic daughter who is 9. She is non-verbal. I have to focus on helping her, and also the problems that come with having a child with such a SEVERE disability. She can be a joy to have around too : ) She has a great sense of humor. I also have a "normal" child (10 yr. old boy) who is very smart. He is probably my best friend. Don't really have any friends outside of my family ....sad to say, but true. My husband is mostly supportive, although he doesn't always want to hear about this. He thinks I tend to panic too much, and that's often true.

Hope you all have a good day.
