Friday the 13th and my husband just got results of Wednesday's biopsy, that he has squamous cell cancer again, his 4th time in 5 years. They were all caught extremely early, removed via surgery (he lost teeth and part of jaw in the previous surgeries), doctors declaring them all small and well-differentiated, clear scans. THIS time it is on his lip, and the doctor said he thinks the biopsy probably got it all, but fortunately, he had a regular check-up scheduled with his oncologist on Monday, so that timing was good. I am sure there are thoughts as to why he never had radiation, but his doctors (including Shands Hospital in Gainesville, FL) never felt he needed it because it was always caught so very early. Now, here's where you come in. In all the reading I do in here, I don't think I've ever seen anyone mention cancer on the lower lip (not from smoking, as he never smoked, chewed, or even drank much), but he seems to have a leukoplakia that keeps creeping around his mouth, causing these lesions that turn cancerous. If anyone has had treatment on LOWER LIP for SCC, we sure would appreciate your experience with this. THANKS SO MUCH....JaneP
