Please understand that we are a group of patients and caregivers and do not have medical training. We are happy to share what we have learned through our experience but really cannot answer questions which require medical knowledge. Your best bet is to wait for the results of the biopsy to come back. In the meantime, try to stay off the internet and Dr. Google. It really doesn’t help. I would also suggest going to the OCF main site to read more about oral cancer. The information there is vetted by doctors and hence, reliable.
