So I am 12 rad treatments in and have 3 chemo done as well. I have been getting mouth sores but today had quite a bit of pain in one area near my tongue. When I looked in the mirror I see a slightly raised rather large white spot on my gum under my tongue. I am freaking out about it. I am terrified that it is cancer but thinking it could also be a sore from my treatments. Has anyone else ever had this kind of sore from treatments? I have radiation tomorrow and was going to have them check it out. I hate this frown Thank you for your help.
