Camille,
I hope everything went well for you this week.
I am so glad I came across your post. I will be seeing an Oral Surgeon on Tuesday to have him evaluate an area on my tongue. Like you, I have been dealing with a chronic sore throat, ear and neck pain since February. I have seen 2 ENTs as well as my regular doctor. I did have a head/neck MRI which revealed thyroid "nodules' which subsequently came back negative. I know something is not right, as my voice has also been hoarse this whole time as well.
I will be looking forward to your update and pray your surgery went well!
