If you check out the info on this site and do as much reading as you can, you will be better prepared to ask the right questions when you see the doctor. It's a good idea to have someone come with you to take notes so you can be sure and get all the information you need. You are right - it is hard not knowing because you can imagine all kinds of things that may not even happen, so take some deep breaths and try to hang in there until you get to the ENT on Monday. Let us know what happens.
