I'm guessing when your doctor tells you not to worry, you probably don't need to worry.



They told me not to worry about the freakin' thing in my freakin' throat!

Thanks, youse guys for the support. Don't know what I'd do without you.

Yes, I do. Worry alone.

@Roberta,
Doctors see sick people all day long. If the last three they saw were sicker than you, they think you're fine. Don't worry. Anyway, you won't worry alone.

The doctor referred to it as an incidental finding. Not to worry. Right. Like the wart in my throat was nothing to worry about. I have to make an appointment with general surgery to get it checked out.

Looked it up online. Maybe I don't have to worry. Maybe I do. I will anyway.

Shee--it.


Well I'm worrying,too, Roberta.
Any new development in your throat would make me worry. But then again, maybe there's no cause for worry, as the doctor says. Confused Oh who knows, but you don't need any new developments, big or little right now, that's what I think ... No surprises welcome!

Met with a new radiation oncology person. He told me my voice might stay this way. Oy.


Oh what !!?? Surprised Confused Sad Neutral
No, no, this surely cannot be right!

bethie, deb, msolga, and Roger, Thanks for the support.

msolga, This has nothing to do with my throat. And why can't the radiologist be right? It's been more than six months, and no one knows why I can't talk. Maybe the answer is simply that I can't talk. Period. Radiation is powerful stuff.

jes, Crosswords are always good. I prefer the puzzles from the NY Times, but I'm amenable to anything.

Madlibs! Haven't played that in centuries.

Went to make the appointment with general surgery today. They're not taking appointments at the moment. Shocked Huh? Glad this isn't any emergency. I was given a number and told to call and keep calling until something opens up.

A while back I had a list of foods I was craving. One of them was pickled tongue. Slurp. Decided to investigate today. I know they're expensive. I figured around 25 bucks. That would be for four or five meals. More than I should be paying for food, but I thought I'd treat myself. Found a place that had tongue. $44. That's for one tongue. Fie, feh, and phooey. Razz

Whatta guy. Fact is, Thomas, that I've tried a number of times to play games on facebook. I've been locked out, frozen out, or completely lost each time. Don't know why, but I have a feeling it's me.

I like Scrabble well enough. Haven't played in a while--and against a human in a longer while. Maybe I'll poke around.

Thanks, kid.

There's treats, Izzie, and then there's insanity. Not gonna spend forty bucks on a tongue. But I like your spirit, kid.
