@PaulB

Thanks so much for responding. I do have a psychiatrist and now a therapist/social worker whom I'll be seeing tomorrow for the 3rd time.

I also have another woman I can call in Montreal to talk, if need be.

You're right about waiting though. It's tough. You've given me the idea to call/write the oral pathologist this week to see whether I can see her earlier for the results.

Will update this thread, accordingly.
