My ENT sent me out for 2 different CT scans and 80 minutes of MRI’s, and chest XRays. and he still seems to not know what’s wrong with me. I endured an 80 minute MRI AND 2 scopes down my nose and now in 5 days I have to go to the hospital to deep scope me.
I’m afraid to find out what he’s looking at and now this longer scope seems like it will be uncomfortable.
My right vocal fold (or paralyzed right vocal is a major issue probably having to do with cancer or benign growth behind my cord. It’s completely not opening . It’s paralyzed the doctor said.

I looked into an online symptoms app and it seems like symptoms of cancer in my esophagus . Scary. Stuff as it’s probably going to
Involve surgery it trache.

Hi Andy,
I'm so sorry you are having so many problems; especially with your vocal cords. That is too bad! It's so difficult with any illness but vocal is even worse since it's hard to speak or be heard. As I told Cathee, honey and molasses seem to help my husband's voice plus drinking a lot of water! Water seems to help with many things as we get older. I'm 77 and I need a lot more water than I used to when I was younger. I'm sorry that you have cancer. Prayer helps! God made you and he can fix you! Just talk to him like he's a friend and he is! After all, Christmas is a time of miracles and it sounds like you need one! I will say a prayer for you also.
Best of luck and Merry Christmas!
