Went to ENT today for a throat scope. My hubby was a nervous wreck. But everything looked fine. The Dr. said it was inflamation that made the flare up on the pet scan which is very common and everthing else, voice box, larynx was clear. My husband just started to tear up and said "Dr. I really needed to hear some good news" Dr. said "I tip my hat off to you sir for going through such a brutal ordeal. but you made it to the other side"! Thank-you Lord. We came home and my husband asked for 2 soft boiled eggs and some bread. and he ate it all!
