My dentist does a scan and checks for this once per year not sure how reliable it is but I will continue to let them do it for peace of mind if nothing else. I’m guessing he’s using a VELscope which is a fantastic screening tool and let’s you have a conversation about suspicious areas. There’s no reason not to have one today.

An update....less than a year after my surgery the cancer has returned. I was just released from Baylor Hospital yesterday after having the lymph nodes removed from the right side of my neck. I will have 6 weeks of radiation and possibly chemo depending on the pathologist report. Like I mentioned in my first thread, I don't know if this is a result of my tobacco use or not but statistics show that tobacco does have this type effect on people. If you're still sitting on the fence and cannot decide whether or not to quit I'm pleading with you to lay it down. I currently have no feeling on the right side of my face and look as though I have had a stroke. This is due to nerve damage during the surgery. Swallowing is difficult and painful. I hope my story can help you make the right decision for you and your loved ones. God Bless.
