Hi Kelley

I'm another one that's had a lot of the feelings/sesations you've had, along with a permanently "tight" feeling 'round the neck like I"m wearing a way too tight turtle neck sweater..

It takes a while for us to not convince ourselves that every little thing is a recurrance. This area we all had sore throats, slight colds, along with real dry weather, and of course I was convinced that there was recurrance, tongue cancer, throat cancer, you name it. Along with during the healing process from the second surgery the contour of my neck has changed, and last follow up scan I was convinced they were going to find multiple recurrances. And scan comes back clear..nothing, nada...

And yes, there will be some days when you feel like you can take on the world, some days you feel like 90.

Work outs, support groups all help. Face to face support group is better, but if not, we're all here to lend an cyber shoulder.

Take care
Bob
