Gary you are a good guy, thanks for taking the time to respond, you really really could never say a word to me again and Id still appreciate the help youve given me already.

You are also very observant, I had completely forgotten I even mentioned the breath problems. However, I HAVENT had any pathology reports at all. All I got was a thorough visual inspection by the ENT that probably wasnt much more thorough then the one a trained dentist would give you. As far as the Lymph nodes, I think we got our wires crossed there. My point was that I HAVENT had any swelling that I can feel yet (and Im constanly feeling there) and I thought that was a GOOD thing... What I read later basically said that Tonsillar Pillar primaries would be the least likely to cause lymph node involvement anyway, so my solice found in not having any is basically nil.

Moreover, he didnt even think the tonsils were THAT big but uhh... they are about the size of a marble at least. I know that most of the time when I talk I have that "hot potato" feeling to my voice (yes I read that on a medical site too smile ), Not sure how else to describe it but it doesnt feel normal when I talk.

By far the most disturbing problem Im having is my right ear ringing and feeling "closed up" or clogged but theres nothing there (he looked in my ears as well)! Sometimes it hurts a little too. I know a few of you guys mentioned having some of this after your diagnosis as well and it is driving me up a wall.

Its just hard because everything associated with these symptoms points to the worst and now I will have to wait for yet another appointment to have this biopsy done.
