Michael Irvin having a throat biopsy done

[Virginia-Dave]

I love me some Michael Irvin, so I hope it's a false alarm. A friend of mine who was a smoker got throat cancer. He was told it had a 95% fatality rate within 5 years. He was gone 2 years later. **** cancer.

My wife deals with biopsies every day.
It just means that a doctor saw something that warrants taking a nice little fleshy chunk to be taken out of you for examination for cancer.
And, while it's not a for sure thing, biopsies are generally not good news.

That’s such bull crap.

Millions have biopsies every day. A lot of them are for precaution. I’ve had them. My family had had several. All came out negative for anything bad.

With his father having it in his early 50’s and Michael in his early 50’s (under grade A insurance and grade A healthcare) this should be expected. Cancer is serious so if he is diagnosed I hope it is early!

That's wonderful. I'm very happy for you and yours.

Prayers for the Playmaker, Michael Irvin.

Thanks man! Didn’t mean to come off rude! Maybe it’s in this day and age, but I’m always hear about people getting biopsies and coming out negative. Unfortunately sometimes I think it’s a case of making more money.

Hoping Irvin’s comes out clean!

No worries.
