    I've been feeling bad the last few days... like a bad cold. *** Cough - Cough - Sniff ***

    On Thursday I went to my Doctor and she ordered a CT Scan of my sinuses. It turns out I have a polyp about the size of a golf ball in one of my sinuses (Just under my right-hand eye), a deviated septum, a lot of swelling in the sinuses, a blocked drainage tube of some sort and several other problems I can't pronounce or spell.

    She has referred me to an Ear Nose and Throat specialist who will proceed... odds are I will need surgery to correct everything. I'm just hoping that with the golf-ball sized polyp my visit to the ENT Doctor will not turn into a scene from Total Recall.

    I hope everything works out ok... and that it's nothing more serious than a polyp.

    LOL..........Else, I know part of you must feel scared at some level, but you're trying to put a good face on it..............in case it makes you feel any better, I recently had my own health drama, involving an eye specialist for a volcanic type growth growing under my eybrow and erupting from time to time.........the thing would go from nothing to about 1/2 high overnight and I'd be walking around looking like Quasimodo for however many days til it would gradually subside and disappear...........long story short: I have a cyst that we are going to keep an eye on..........which is quite a step down from what the first guy I saw said: "it's growing into the eye socket and will have to be surgically removed." So, will you be under general anesthesia while they do this? Mine can be operated on in the guy's office!!

    At least they didn't find that polyp lower down.
