Hi @loribmt. Sorry getting back late. I had the biopsy and while they were inside my jaw they were able to remove most if not all the lesion. Still out for confirmation via biopsy of what it actually was/is. Some pain last night but mostly swelling. 26 sutures in mouth. Thanks again so much for your help. While the drilling into my jawbone wasn’t pleasant I didn’t feel anything. Thanks -B

@btothetee, just checking in. Did you get the results of the biopsy? How are you doing?

Phew I’m so happy to hear from you! I’ve been thinking about you all day, hoping the surgery went well. I felt maybe they would remove what they could of the cyst while you were in surgery but didn’t want to speak out of turn just in case.
It’s wonderful you’re not too uncomfortable. That’s always a bit unpredictable but I thought I’d err on the side of caution and let you know the worst…so you were ready. 🙃 I’m happy it all went well and wish you all the best on the biopsy. Most of these cysts are benign so we’ll just keep that positive thought. 26 sutures took some might fancy stitching! Keep me posted!
