Hi Leslie and Sue,
At the moment am checking OCF every other day after discovering the site a few weeks ago. Do not want to worry you however I had leukoplakia for many years and had a few biopsys done by dental surgeon's. In 2003 I had one done under a general in hospital (with other tests) as there were some concerns however this also turned out to be clear of cancer. I must let you know that I did not give up smoking at the time(heavy smoker). My dentist had been urging me during 2005 and 2006 to have another test. Had the biopsy in August 2006 which was positive and operation in September. Am doing OK now however neither of you mention smoking and again do not want to cause unnessary worry as my leukoplakia did eventually lead to cancer.
Cheers
Gabriele
