I came down with tongue cancer in May 2012 (stage 2)- I had surgery, and it turned into stage 4 in November 2012. I was 61 at the time- with no known risks, never smoked, never did drugs, social drink every now and then, tested negative for HPV virus. My question to all of you women- did any of you take Fosamax or Atelvia or Boniva? I am starting to wonder if that is the reason for my tongue cancer- researching and finding out studies show it could cause throat cancer and also ulcers and sores on the tongue.
