Hello, and thank you all for your advice and support. I am scheduled for a consultation with Dr. norris at Dana-Farber next Tuesday. From there I will find out what course of action they will suggest for the treatment. Thankfully i have a lot of family and friend to be there for me, and I am glad that my infant is to young to have to cope with me going throught this at this point. The pain is starting to increase in my tongue now, so I hope they will get me in soon after the consultation.
