Guest guest Posted June 29, 2002 Report Share Posted June 29, 2002 Mark B, Years ago my father-in-law had symptoms that were pretty much like what you're having. When he went to the doctor he found out he had a fennel seed lodged in the duct! I don't know if he was tired from it or not. So my advise would be the same as others-check with the doctor~ and that's what you're doing~ keep us posted as to what you find out. Mark B. wrote: It's a little better today, but still a bit swollen and gets very swollen & hard when I eat, so I'm wondering if I don't have a blockage in duct from the parotid gland.

Guest guest Posted June 29, 2002 Report Share Posted June 29, 2002 Well, I really tried to see the doctor. There's 2 hour wait at the immediate care center I went to. I was just too tired to wait in their very uncomfortable chairs. But I'm pretty sure it's something blocking the duct. I was so hungry after waiting an hour at the center that I came home & ate a frozen dinner no matter the pain. Something broke loose & now I'm nearly drooling. It's still part clogged, but I just massage my cheek and jaw to force out the spit. How did I get so blessed with such an interesting life? So, if it gets worst, I will go to the ER since the wait is about the same & the ER takes medicaid. If it doesn't get worse, I'm calling my doctor Monday. Oh and since I ate, I'm not tired. I hadn't eaten since yesterday morning. Gosh, I'm glad this list is here! Thanks, friends. Peace Mark B.

Even though you don't feel well at all, your sense of humor is coming through strong! I certainly hope you get to feeling better very soon. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
