I haven't started radiation or chemo yet we are still in the testing to see what is what. I went to the dentist first becase my teeth are loose and turning black, he saw a leision and sent me to the ENT. The Ent did a biopsy came back positive sent me to John B Amos Cancer Center who sent me for a barrium swallow test and a cat scan. Results showed a second larger mass and therefore sent me back to the ENT for a larenscopy? Spelling is bad. I go in Monday the 10th for that. I see the radiologist Friday for the first time.. The taste seems to be coming from the back of my teeth as well as the back of my throat. My tounge feels like and taste like rust. From what I saw on the xrays I do have roots but on of my teeth I can almost spin around in my mouth. I feel like I have blisters all over my tounge but when I look I don't see any. Also my tounge looks dark to me. I go back to see my onocologist on Thursday and boy do I have a ton of questions for him. Did I answer any of your questions? I am sorry for rambling but I guess you can tell I am scared. Thanks Brenda
