Thank you for your response. Did it help you? Why were you having it done? Were you in discomfort?

My ENT uses it "break-up" scar tissue for patients who've had bad or unsuccessful nose or sinus surgeries elsewhere. And my cardiologist mentioned that radio-frequency is used in a lot areas of medicine that used to have to rely on surgical or laser protocols. I had the Vivaer protocol to 'remodel' cartilage so I could breathe more comfortably and stop using allergy meds and steroid inhalers. It was virtually pain-free. I don't know if it's something that could help but is worth asking your doctor about.

With all the therapies that you're exploring, and keeping up with quijong and the rest, you might be making progress that isn't yet evident. My mother was a doctor and used to remind us that the body experiences trauma (which breast cancer and surgery and treatments surely are) in subtle and profound ways and that it's still healing in deeper ways long after a person might assume that the healing was "finished." So everything that you are doing can be creating a better long-term outcome that just isn't obvious yet.
