Joined: Jun 2007 Posts: 10,507 Likes: 7 | Welcome to OCF! Im glad you have found our site to help you get thru this. We have a member Miss Kate who had this procedure and has overcome many obstacles from the glossectomy. She has not only lived thru this, she has thrived and recently had her second child. Please do yourself a favor and go for a second opinion (preferably i at a CCC if possible) before you have surgery. Once its been removed, it can never be put back. Best wishes! Profile for Miss Kate (so you can read her posts and contact her if you want)
