Hey Shawn. Just new to the site and since you vented below, I do hope you are feeling ready for the next battle, I went to 3 specialist and numerous GP visits before they stopped treating me for swimmers ear and sore throat , one guy was convinced I has sinus problems. After 5 months and knowing something was not right "constant pain, not eating, living on pain killers. I found a specialist who listened actually looked,and who said to me mate I think you may have a problem here, 2 weeks later surgery and the the following week more surgery to getting all.
Now radiation treatment which scares me, I chose not to have chemo and asked that they remove 1/2 my tongue. My wife when she had breast cancer went the other way keep her breast did chemo / radiation and is now powering along 3 years later.
Hope all gets better after the storm mate. Pedro.
