Welcome, @newtonguecancer. I see that you were diagnosed with squamous cell tongue cancer very recently. This must come as a shock. You are not alone. I moved your messages to this existing discussion:
- Tongue Cancer: What are my treatment options? https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/cancer-under-my-tongue-and-raised-lymph-nodes/

I did this so that you can easily connect with other members, like @rkaspet @loli @alpaca @sharique some who are newly diagnosed like you and others who walked this path years ago.

You asked about what doctor does one deal with squamous tongue cancer and @loribmt responded. @loli and @alpaca can also share how their journies began and to which specialists they were first referred.

NewTongueCancer, may I ask how and which specialist diagnosed you with tongue cancer?
