Tongue Cancer

Hi All! 

I had tongue cancer at the age of 25. Doctors could never gave me an explanation of why I got that type of cancer. 

Part of my tongue has been removed and now at the age of 28 I suffer from the effects of the operation. I would like to meet someone that experienced Tongue cancer and how are they coping.  

  • Hi Xplora,

    Did you ever meet anyone? I got it at 23, im 26 now. 

    Hope you see this, happy to discuss.

    Thanks.

  • Hi I'm buddyanne and I am three years on from my tongue cancer, I too have had a good part of my tongue removed, the biggest after effect I have is a lisp as I have no tip to my tongue and some people who don't know me won't make the effort to understand me which is hurtful, that makes me sad. But mostly I'm just glad to be here and the people at my oral clinic are super. I'm sorry you got this at such a young age it's easier to cope with I think when you are old like me lol x
