Chloe: Tell the doctor to biopsy those spots. This isn't a time to pussyfoot around things that are concerning you. Any sore that doesn't heal in a couple of weeks should be checked and even an oral surgeon can't tell what something is until the biopsy. Get done what you want. Be firm and assertive.
ERic: We'll be waiting with you....praying for clear results. Try to stay busy.
