I eat pan, Gurkha since ten years. If I left it, then it is possible that I will not have cancer.

Yes. It will decrease the risk if you quit. It takes about 10-15 years for the risk to go down to that of a normal person. Hence earlier you quit the better. Also avoid supari, tobacco and alcohol in any form Feel free to contact me directly if you want to discuss this further.
