Hi Cheryl
The suspicious lump / bump is right next to the suspicious Leukoplakia patch the doctor removed in Dec. It feels kind of hard, especially compared to what was removed in Dec., and that is one of my concerns (and the doctor's as well). All he is planning to remove is this lump / bump -however it has gotten bigger. I'm not saying it's big. It might be 3/8" x 1/4" .. That is just a rough estimate. It seems that if it was benign it wouldn't have gotten bigger. It wasn't even there a month ago. It just popped up while my mouth was healing (or at least I thought it was). The doctor didn't measure the suspicious area -at least I don't think he did, and I don't understand that.

Let me know if you have any more thoughts about this.
Thanks
