Donnajean,

People are soon going to want to kick me off this forum for my doom and gloom opinions, but I am really concerned about your husband. The feeling like someone is grabbing him by the throat from behind and the fullness (possibility of fluid) under the chin are just too similar to some of Heather's symptoms. Yes, it is probably just residual effects from his treatment, but I really think you need to get him to the dr ASAP. Good luck!

Rainbows & hugs, wink
Rosie
