Not quite a happy dance yet, that will not take place until Feb. 24th when I get my first PET Scan. My ENT Doc. was thrilled with the CT Scan of my neck this morning. He said there is absolutely nothing on the scan to be concerned with. He also scoped me and everything looks great. He did say I am still very swollen in the entire throat area, and that I do have some moderate edema in my neck. I will start some therapy sessions next week to address swallowing and to help remove the edema.

BEST!!!

Mike

    CT Scan
    Mike,

    You deserve a happy dance!

    On my first big exam after treatment, I had a CT Scan and scope too. Getting a clean scan is great news and a reason to happy dance!

    Congrats! It is going to get better.

    Sounds Great So Far
    Mike,
    Great to hear. I'm betting that throat seemed to hurt less after the "nothing on the scan to be concerned with". Wonderful. I'm thinking a celebration is still in order, PET or no PET. Do well. good luck with therapy.

    Stuff of legend
    Hi Mike, great to hear. The story of your brawling tumble through initial surgery is the stuff of legend, and I'm sure your recovery will be as impressive.

    Excellent news!
    Here's to more good news in the future!

    Buy one of those vibrating neck massagers and wear it backward for the edema. Hot showers help, as does massage.
