Thank you Mike. I have been busy trying to find what information I could about cysts, cancer and the black spots, that I have forgotten to also look into the laws governing medical care of inmates to see what options I have there on making sure my husband gets the medical attention he needs. I understand on how the reason of his incarceration really is no concern of anything to do with his medical, unfortunately though I have come to feel that I have to explain the whys of it. I have learned since my husbands incarceration the lack of understanding that too many have in this situation. This includes my entire family who I expect no less of them then to completely disown me the moment my husband comes home. I am not even able to talk to them about what is going on now because they couldn't care less, which is the reason I looked toward the web to help me on finding information and to understand more of what is going on.

As for your question on the location of the spots: they are on the lower jaw in the front, which is the same area of my husbands injury that he received a couple of years ago which also makes me wonder if it couldnt be something as simple as arthritis and I have found one article which mentioned black spots and arthritis both. I did make alot of calls yesterday and hopefully it was enough for him to get to see the dentist again on the hole that was left open to his sinus cavity. I am waiting for my husband to call again so I can find out if it was enough or not. I have all my sites saved still from when I was researching on the charges and the behavior of the officers, so I should be able to find something there on the medical rights. I have learned though that having to actually cut away bone etc is more for the worst cases and normally radiation treatments etc are enough. And even if it does come to the worse, there is recontructive options to help if a section of the bone needs to be cut away. This will releave alot of stress off my husbands mind. The way the dentist told him on what he thought he had, and basically the only option he was looking at needing to do, it really has my husband scared right now.
