Cancer scare

Glad it's turned out not to be what you feared. Best wishes to all currently worrying. Its a horrible, horrible time.

minxie pleased you have got a positive outcome of your tests.

It is an awful diagnosis to hear, very close to home for us at the moment. All you can do is be there for the loved one with the diagnosis.

I can totally imagine what you were going through minxie but so happy it turned out not to be serious . I know what you mean about the worry though. A few years ago (and just before Christmas) during a routine check up, my dentist commented on a raised crinkly patch on the side of my tongue . It was quite sore and irritating as it caught on my teeth. . He said he didn’t like the look of it and made an urgent referral to a specialist who I saw within 2 weeks . This was followed by several very nasty biopsies and stitches in my tongue so I couldn’t have my Christmas dinner ( not that I was eating at this point anyway). The best present I could have had was that in the first week of January I received a call from the consultant saying that the biopsies were clear and he suspected Geographical tongue. I had spent weeks rehearsing in my head not being able to talk or eat to the point of almost sending myself mad with fear . That feeling of being told it was all okay was like flying above the ground ! These days I now have a bit of a strange shaped tongue due to the bits they chopped off ( it doesn’t stop
me talking though) and have worked out that certain food stuffs irritate it more than others (humous being one ???) so I try to avoid them .

So happy for your good news
