Trese:
I know how you feel because I went through something similar in the past. Believe me, you won't rest until you do what the others said, "Go to a CCC somewhere in your area" and get it checked out for once and for all. If you need a reference, ask that ENT who is so sure that there's nothing there to arrange an appointment, or perhaps you won't need a recomendation, just find the telephone number and talk to the Center. If necessary, you could get your family doctor, or even dentist, to recommend you, if necessary. Worrying will drive you nuts, and us telling you not to worry doesn't help either, but it is because we care. Please do this and get back with us.
