You may be wondering why this was a stroke of good fortune.The answer is simple,they had to drag in a Locum.
Within 3 days I was seeing a specialist in B'burn Royal,The day after I had a Biopsy.
This week on Tue I saw the surgeon- Wed had an MRI and Thu.I had an operation to remove potentially cancerous cells.
I don't recommend letting people stick needles in your tongue.Believe me it hurts.

Thanks for all your support
At last, we can talk about it, it has been a worrying time for Peter and what a lucky escape he seems to have had. He mentioned the problem to his doctor about a year ago and was fobbed of with an excuse.
He saw this Lo cum and within a month, (hopefully), everything has been dealt with.
Well done Pete, I bet you've wanted to mention this many times while you were feeling insecure and wondering what your outcome was going to be.

Perhaps though this should be taken as a warning by the rest of us?

Peter put up with what he considered a minor irritation, but it had potentially life threatening consequences if he had continued to ignore it.

Thank goodness for the Doctor that actually took time to look.

All the best Pete, see you on the pub scene when the scar starts to heal!
