In August when I first felt the swollen glands, you couldn't see them unless I tilted my head a certain way. By November when I was Dx'd you could clearly see them. By February before the surgery it looked like I had the mumps on the left side of my neck. It was as if once the cancer was discovered, it got pissed off and started growing rapidly.

Did the ENTs you went to do a fine needle biopsy?

hey T,

I just returned from my ultrasound test. The radiologist there scanned all the area of my front neck and thyroid and i also pinpointed the location where i thought that my lymph nodes are hard, so he scanned there as well.

He said that it looks like nothing serious; just a small inflammation of my lymph nodes and that an infection, especially if viral could take a long time to heal.

I have scheduled to see my ENT later today to show him the ultrasound scans. My guess is that i will be prescribed another round of antibiotics.

I have not had a fine needle biopsy yet but its on my mind...
