Thanks for the quick response Christine, the ENT did say he would monitor and maybe do biospy when I go back for check up in June. To be honest the reason I am going to the Oral Surgeon is because I just love him!! The ENT on the other hand not so much. I am just alittle concerned that he has never suggested a PET or CT scan, but on the other hand I never pushed for them either. I just wanted to put it all behind me.

Anyway, I have already decided when I see Oral Surgeon that I would like referral to different ENT. The ENT did a good job with my surgery, cannot even see the scar on my neck! But he can be alittle arrogant and seems offended when I ask questions about issues that I have with swelling from lymph nodes removed and less saliva, told me I was lucky I didn't have radiation it would be much worse!

I will post again after my appointment Tuesday.
