Guest guest Posted December 4, 2001 Report Share Posted December 4, 2001 Well I went to Stanford and got home yesterday. I saw an ENT and he did a fiber optic scope to see my vocal cords.. All looked fine.. just a little redness on the sides where the cartilage is... but not in a flare... He set up a hearing test and is sending me to the head of the ENT dept. I will see him on Jan 7th. Went and had an ultra sound of my aorta. Don't have any results yet... guess the heart dr will call if anything is wrong. That's about all the news I have... It all sounds good...and that is fine with me..LOL I'm very thankful to have found a good team of drs. Hope everyone is doing well and is pain free. hugs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 4, 2001 Report Share Posted December 4, 2001 , Glad to hear things went well for you!!! Don't you hate that fiber optic test to look at your vocal cords????? I have had it done 5 times in that past few months and was suppose to have it done again last month but canceled it because I was battling the nausea so bad. I have to call tomorrow and reschedule!!! YUCK!! I wanted to let you know that I was like a mad woman on Saturday when I went shopping!! There was no way I could let you get to far ahead of me-- what a great motivator!! I got almost done!! Still have just a few things to pick up!! I was so excited!! Of course, it is all sitting in the spare bedroom now and every time I open the door, I swear it is all staring at me saying " wrap me " !!!! I just keep shutting the door and telling myself, another day-- another time!!!

Guest guest Posted December 5, 2001 Report Share Posted December 5, 2001 Kathi... Well, it looks like it is your turn to motivate me. Those few things I have to pick up.....well they still aren't done. LOL ANd my spare room is screaming... " WRAP ME " too. I think it is so crowed in there, that they need some air. I too keep shutting the door. I'm going to try today to go buy a graduation present, order a cake, and buy a birthday present. And if I have time try to pick up those few things (somehow they keep growing) LOL The fiber optic thing didn't bother me. They really numbed me up good. I couldn't feel a thing. I'm sorry your experience's were not good ones. Won't you be glad when all the testing is done??? Well, I'm off to wash my hair and try to get out of here. Won't be at chat this morning. Will miss all of you. Have a great day. << , Glad to hear things went well for you!!! Don't you hate that fiber optic test to look at your vocal cords?????
