Thanks Charm. Yes, I do feel like I've had every side effect in the world, but then I did have TWO sets of radiation to the head/neck (32/30) which doubles my complaint allowance smile. I have agreed to participate in a clinical trial for dry eyes which gets me to a different ophthalmologist and gets me free eye drops so all good.

Thanks for the replies - good know know what others experience. I continue to wait for my biopsy results and yes, Charm, if I do have another silk stitch being rejected by my body after 4 1/2 years, my doctor said HE will write me up for the medical journals. For the time being, he doesn't "think" the new lump is anything - I am waiting (MUCH more patiently/calmly this time) - and yes, sometimes a lump is just a lump.
