Take a deep breath. Now another one.

What Youngin said; about it not being cancer...etc. and welcome. I didn't chew, I smoked, for 30 + years. IF it is cancer, you can do this. DOn't start thinking it's all over before you even begin...things aren't like that any more.

It is tough, it is horrifying, and you have come to the right place. Wait for your results, see what they recommend for a treatment plan if it is a cancer, and come back here and let us know.

No one will re-diagnose you, but we have all walked those terrifying miles before you. and we're here to help you through them too
