Met with the radiologist yesterday. He scoped me and did a full examination. He said the swallowing is often more of a problam with base of tongue cancers and mine was pretty big. He scheduled me for both swallow tests that will also be observed by a speech therapist so I am hoping that they will put me on a program that will return my swallowing function.

Also I am a singer (not professionally)and my voice is much lower than before. I cannot hit the higher notes without squeaking, but I think with practice that may improve. In fact I have practivced a little each day and notice some capability returning but it is now where near where I used to be....probably a third of my previous range.
