Any suggestions on dealing with the roller coaster ride of waiting out biopsies.

I had tongue cancer about 7 seven years ago. In the past few years I have had spots come and go. Some on there own and others surgicaly removed. I have been pretty lucky the worst they have come back was inflamation. The last time back in June I had two came back atypical I was told no big deal and on just yesterday I had to have another removed.

Is anyone else having the same trouble....

    How Maddening
    I'm glad that the spots you've had come up have not been threats to your wellbeing. It has got to be horrible to have to keep going through the initial worry/fear so many times when a spot appears. I'm a short term survivor, and have no experience/knowledge on the supbject. Congrats on the long term status; hope the spots stop cropping up.
