Guest guest Posted August 15, 2006 Report Posted August 15, 2006 I went back to the see the ENT doc yesturday. Another afternoon spent in a waiting room. He went back up the nose and down the throat with that dreaded scope and looked at my larynx again. This time he had a new machine with a tv screen that I could watch. He showed me the lesions there...and inflamation and swelling. He said biopsy was out of the question as per cardiologist. Anesthesia would be risky because of lungs also. Sooo, he wanted to see if there were changes that would further point to malignancy. He said nothing had changed. It had not gotten worse, not better but not worse. I go back in two more months for another scope. He still does not know what caused it...bacterial, fungal, coughing, meds or reflux. Is leaning toward reflux. He increased my Prilosec and told me no caffiene. NO CAFFIENE!!! Waaaagh Why get up in the morning? No eating 3 hours before bedtime... Booo Hoooo! My favorite eating time. So, I am still barely croaking, hungry and have a caffiene withdrawel headache. I have felt like my hat is too tight all day. (I don't have a hat) O.K. Everyone say....OH POOR BABY! ...............oh yes, I feel better now! Hugs, Joyce PF 1997 Quote
