The scan yesterday showed nothing and said difficult to note anything without dye. Confirmed not a salivary stone and lymph node under chin was found but most likely cystic necrosis. So...nothing mentioning any abnormalities so I am considering this good to go! It was long and drawn out and tried my patience. I guess it was like reliving the teen years again! Life is goo d and onward I go.
Thank you everyone. This is one time in the past 8 yrs or so that I allowed worry creep! Miffed to check it my heart today. I heard there is one there and the cavity between the ears is rumored to have grey matter.
