Total frustration!!!!!!!!!!!!! I finally heard back from the ENT's nurse and she said my CT came back normal. Conflicting opinion though because on Monday she said there was inflammation in the lymph nodes and today she says everything is ok. I questioned this and then she admits there is inflammation in the nodes. The ENT wants to refer me back to my primary. (He is the one that wants to just drop it since I don't have life threatening issues.) I asked, wouldn't an ENT be the one to see for throat issues and she is still insistent on seeing my primary since my CT came back normal. I asked about the red spots he saw when he scoped me (they were on my vocal cords and down my throat.) and she just dismissed them.

I asked about an antibiotic and she said no. I persisted and she said she'd check with the doctor and he said no!!

I am shocked that going to an ENT at a place where they deal with cancer has got me no where.

I guess at this point I need to just give up and wait it out. Maybe it is just allergies and will go away after the first frost. That still doesn't explain the numbness and tingling that has been going on in my jaw area for over 6 months.
