Hey Rick46,
What makes you genetically disposed to oral cancer? Just wondering. Do you get cancer sores? I get them alot and my hubby gets them some. For me, they begin as a little red sore and then grow some into a white ulcer. Dan's problem was we never knew anything about oral (tongue) cancer so he didn't even begin to check it out for many months. By then it was almost quarter-sized. I still get canker sores and flip out a little when I see them after Dan's experience. However, it was told to us at diagnosis that if you have any sore in your mouth longer than 2 weeks, definitely get it checked.

Hope this helps and God bless,
Debbie
