UHNS

great visit to hospital this morning, all positive. First to the Lymphodema clinic to try & resolve and improve the swelling in my neck. Some exercises whilst wearing a special collar and some oscillating therapy should make a big improvement.
Next to Mr Uppal who shoved a camera down my hooter to have a good look at my throat. He reported no concerns other than some swelling around my vocal chords which may explain to some extent my inability to swallow and soreness if I talk too much. This is all good news. Hopefully when I see him in a  month we can schedule the scan which will give us a more definite idea of how things are progressing.
Then to get measured up for a gum shield which will hopefully prevent a lot of the trouble I am getting with my tongue, which is caused by me accidentally biting it in my sleep.
Whoosh! That's your lot for today. Time for a nap.
