i havent answered or done a lot here in a while and i think its time you all knew why, not making excuses, just asking for a little patience. and i think of you as family so. 3 weeks ago a lump came up on my neck, very small but i had a little pain in the back of my neck. long story short when i went to the ear nose and throat dr he looked and sent me straight to uk that was yesterday 6/02, and thats where i am now at the uk markey cancer center. im still waiting for all the tests i had yesterday, scope, blood,ct , mri and biospy. when i find out, if your interested, i wiil try to post. for some reason i cant get my email yet so i have to get that going asap. seems things arent looking that good of the options and kinds it seems i dont have the kind that they remove the thyroid and its gone but nothing definite yet, they have the swelling under control and i should know more tomorrow
