[quote=walknlite]So I called my mom and told her that it was not a lymph, but just a rock hard muscle. She said, "How do they know for sure? Are they going to do anymore testing to make sure?" I then replied, "My ENT was very thorough and spent ten minutes trying to find a lymph node, and all he could feel was a rock hard muscle." She then replied, "Well, how does he know for sure without doing some sort of scan?" Nothing like putting a damper on the shear excitment I had to know it was not a recurrence and just side effect from treatment. I can handle some fibrosis. [/quote]
