"T"
I wasn't surprised by the neck dissection. In order to cut the top off the HYOID bone they had to cut in my neck. While they were in there, they had to remove lymph nodes to get the tip of hyoid bone which has elongated and supposedly what's been causing my grief. They had do get lymph nodes out of their way, so no harm done in sending them do parhology.

The Hyoid bone has elongated and was 1 mm from my cervical spine and was also puncturing into my throat. This is most certainly what has been causing my pain.
