Well,it's back to the ENT again,this time with a lump on my neck,right side just kind of behind (sort of...) the jaw....I hope,once again, that I am being paranoid...I had a sore on my tongue last year that turned out to be nothing,he actually said that it looked almost like a pimple!!! and a medrol pack pretty much took care of it. I also have a bad nocturnal habit of teeth grinding and with my tongue the way it is,I quite often bite the thing and often talk with a lisp. But I also consider myself lucky,considering what a lot of people here have been through.


I have been perusing the posts in here and see both the good and the bad...and as usual I know it's not cancer until they say it is!!

I have also been very tired of late...but that could be related to my under active thyroid...also some weird kind of head-achy things they kind of start at the base of my head close to the neck and sort of travel to just above my eye...kind of weird,but then I have a habit weird things happening to me....for instance a case of Henoch Shcoenlein Purpura when I was a kid and then a weird oattern of healing to a badly broken leg whch resulted in a bone graft....

Whether it is or isn't a recurrence we will see on the 12th, and then deal with whatever happens next.

I will keep you up to date!!!
