Hi everyone,
Thanks for all your replies. It certainly relieves alot of my anxiety, however I've always been accused of being wound a little too tight I am just having alot of sharp pain through what I think are my tonsils, with alot of stiffness, and just general malaise. I am starting a face to face head and neck support group next month which I am kind of excited about. I also see my medical oncologist next month. So hopefully that goes well. I think I just need a vacation to somewhere warm. Winters in Michigan are brutal.
Thanks Mark for your advice on meditation. I found a place that I can walk to that provides yoga instruction as well as meditation.
Gary, my ent told me that table salt on the back of the tongue before the finger goes in helps keep the gag reflex in check. I havent tried it yet, but I think my doc will probably bring the salt shaker next time. He's sick of me beating him up Also it's nice that you have your boyish figure back. I've struggled with that since the end of treatment. I'm barely a size 0 now. Have you ever shopped in the childrens department for a cocktail dress?
Well thanks again everyone. I'm so very glad I found this site.
