Hi Patty,

I received all of my results this past Friday. The tongue was severe dysplasia and the cheek was moderate dysplasia. My doctor did say she thinks I would be a candidate for radiation in the future. She doesn't want to do it now since it can only be used once. To be honest...I'm petrified to get radiation. I know so many here have gone through it but I am so scared to do that. Is radiation as bad as I think it is?
