Thsnx again everyone. Went to my GP and he's doing a few tests Inc TSH to make sure it's not the thyroid. I agree that it's very frustrating that we have to depend on OCF rather than all the medical staff. Boy am I glad OCF is here. I have learnt so much from everyone on this website. The most important thing I've learnt is that you have to be your own advocate. Before I got on this website, my thinking was "I'll leave it to the experts, they know what they are doing". Little did I know then!!!

Both my ENT and RO are so busy that I always feel like I have to rush. But like I said, there is only one place that does radiation in Perth so I dont really have a choice. At least I have you guys to help me along the way. Many many thsnx.
