Leukoplakia is a typical pre-cancerous condition and the suggestion of a biopsy in 6 weeks sounds about right to me. A good search engine should give you more information, I had a list of good sites, but lost them when my computer crashed. Good girl, I know it won't be easy but chuck the smokes out of the window NOW, I stopped about 6 years ago, I'll tell you the first 4 weeks are the hardest then it gets better!!!!!If I knew then what I know now I never would have smoked ONE..
Take Care
