Hello Mchaperon,

Glad you were able to find someone to gift you enough to schedule a biopsy.

I hope it comes back completely benign for you, and the costs are manageable for you.

I believe there is another forum on here for insurance and paying for treatment and financial resources you can read through for ideas.

Here, I found the forum, lets see if this link works: https://oralcancersupport.org/forums/ubbthreads.php/forums/10/1/insurance-and-financial-forum


Social Media and GoFundMe type drives may be an option.

I know the initial oral biopsy thing is sometimes inititally in a gray area, for example the VA doesn't have in house oral surgeons to do biopsies, and the dental vs. medical insurance coverage questions are confusing.

Best wishes,

R/
CQ
