I just wanted to thank everyone again, more recently, Dinah and Julie, for your support and well wishes. I am really glad to hear that everyone is doing so well after all the struggle they have been through. I've just made an appointment for tomorrow with my medical oncologist. I actually moved my appointment up 2 weeks because I just can't shake this sinking feeling. I should probably jump over to the symptoms forum, but I just wondered if anyone could shed some light on recurrence. I've spent most of the weekend on line and of course am more confused now than ever. (I did manage to watch the superbowl though. What a game!) Aside from this general malaise, I've been feeling lightheaded with a pressure in the back of my head. Of course I have pain and stiffness in my neck, but it seems unusally worse. I also have tingling/numbness in the roof of my mouth. Mostly when my mouth is dry, when I swallow, I have pain that shoots to my ear, mostly the right one and then I experience tingling on my chin and around my mouth. Also, I still have that feeling that something is stuck or rather someone has their hand around my throat. None of these feelings are persistent, however the numbness on the roof of the mouth seems to be more frequent. I know how I must sound. My husband thinks I'm a pessimist. I think I'm a realist who just wants to be prepared. If anyone has felt these symptoms, please let me know. Or even if you haven't...

Thanks again,

Kelley
