Visit with ENT

Well went up to Penn State Hershey today to see the ENT, as said I have been having throat and ear pain for a while now, was off and on this past week and noticed some pain also in the right ear once or twice. Had a real good going over. tube through nose into throat, everything looked good, estucheon tubes clear. Soreness was at the junction of where my stupid dentures met the palate. Nothing there so blame it on the dentures. However the pain is due to TMJ and is also contributing to the inside the jaw pain. Really hurt when he pressed the jaw on both sides around the ears. But no C so all is good, will see him again in July and he once again said, if it looks like that he will consider the laryngeal cancer cured. So a good day. See the urologist for the prostate next month and the pulmonologist in March. Denis
