@emmur16, I'm glad that you got a referral to an ENT specialist. Waiting two months for your appointment isn't easy, but I caution about putting the cart before the horse. It may not be cancer. And treatment many not result in the removal of your nose. Sure, it's easy for me to say "just relax" - easier said than done right? Perhaps @loli, @alpaca or @lzzie have some thoughts to share.

Emmur, Can you ask the ENT specialist to put you on a wait list in the event that there is a cancellation and you could get in sooner?

Thank you Coleen for your kind reply. You were right with your advise. At 91 in a few months I figure I am having "bonus time" anyway. I lost my beloved husband On November 9, 2015 and with him went the spark that kept me young. I have had good health till now. We will see come April 24th when I see the ENT. My eldest daughter did call and they put me on their waiting list. Death does not frighten me. It is the thought of not being able to take my nose with me! Bless you dear girl.

So good to hear that you put your worry into action. I see you also add a healthy sprinkle of humor. Enjoy your Snickers.
