Hi everyone hoping to get some reassurance or statistics as I know a lot of you have a history dealing with or looking up oral cancers and I cannot go down that rabbit hole. I’m seven months pregnant and I know my anxiety is off the charts right now
Anyhow my husband is 36 and actually has a history of chewing tobacco since he was 18. He’s quit thankfully within the last six or seven months.. and as far as I know hasn’t relapsed. I got really triggered because someone I know has been re diagnosed with jaw cancer and I know it’s my anxiety telling me to freak out but I’m freaked out. My husband has had regular cleanings as recently as six months ago but I’m still so terrified he’s going to develop or currently developing something. Can anyone shed some light statistically on this fear? I know I shouldn’t be seeking reassurance but I really don’t want to go in a spiral.
