Thank you Sassy, and I wish you ALL the best. I do try to keep my mind off of things. I'm a singer so I spend a lot of time writing lyrics and trying to learn guitar. The worries are always in the back of my mind though...I went to the dentist today He said it looks like the bump on my palate is an irritation and the bumps in the back of my mouth are probably papillomas. He wants to see me again in 2 weeks for a follow up, and if they haven't changed, he wants to refer me to an oral surgeon to back up his findings. He kept assuring me he doesn't think it's cancer, but now I feel like I'm back to waiting AGAIN. I also got the results of the CT scan on my forehead. It's a soft tissue mass. I'm hoping it's a lipoma. The run in my family. I have to go to the plastic surgeon for that next week. I think if I hadn't gotten both of these things at the same time, I'd be more emotionally stable. Now I keep trying to draw connections between them. Hopefully everything will prove to be benign as the doctors believe...Does anyone know where I can find information on papillomas? Thanx.
