I have been doing pretty good keeping my obsessing in control since my surgery. Today I had my fifth monthly "clear" check up. Surgeon felt all around and said "Looks good...see ya next month!"
So, I get not a mile away in my car when I start to feel all around on my jaw and notice this one spot on my left jaw (cancer was on right tongue and floor of mouth) that kind of feels a bit sore when I press on it. So now I have been pressing on it for hours and guess what?? It kind of hurts now. I have been looking up all sorts of stuff and making myself crazy. I figure to call the dentist Monday and find out if my wisdom tooth is still there on the lower left. I don't even know. I guess I could call the surgeon back and see if I can run in there Monday as well. I feel like I am acting like a nut job. I just had an appt today and the Doc was fine with everything.
Any insight or suggestions or encouragement or kicks in the butt appreciated.
Thanks. Denise
