Hello everyone. The leukoplakia came back as "hyperkeratotis without dysplaysia". I know there is chance it could turn into something worse, but I am so relieved I can't even begin to explain! I do think I will get a second opinion on if it should be removed (was told no action except to watch for changes).

I don't even know how to put this experience into words, or at least how to say it without writing a novel! So I'll just say it's something I never want to forget, actually I should say that I will never forget, and that it has changed me forever.

I only posted on this board once, but reading all the various threads, experiences, and stories helped me get through a tough time. So I want to thank you for that.

all the best.

Joe
