Okay, here is my promised update. I got a call to go back in to the dental school Residents clinic. My appt. will be for 2:30 p.m. tomorrow, but he asked me to be there early, maybe 2:10 p.m., in case they can take me early. The resident will evaluate and assess the lesion. Based on what he sees, the plan would be to remove and/or biopsy the lesion. "Who" and "When" I assume will depend again on what he sees. I'm really glad they got me back in so soon. I will sleep better tonight, knowing that I am closer to finding out what is going on in there.
