Oh what a fun week I have had. Those of you that followed the tooth saga will be pleased to hear I am nearly at the finishing line and had the fitting for the implant, another 2 weeks and I will have the new tooth. It wasn’t particularly pleasant but it’s done. My next exiting trip was to have a scan to find out more about the calcifications in my breast. Apparently there is only one specialist scanner and that is in Wales. Not much fun and the biopsy was uncomfortable. Then yesterday and Mr ENT for my intermittent voice loss, that was a treat, a telescope up my nose and down my throat. However, just a minimal thickening in my vocal chords but pronounced healthy. So can’t blame Prednisolone, Thyroid or GERD I am to have voice training and then will be cured. That’s reassuring. All this without a single🥂

I am going away for a few days with my daughter and a friend, just need a change from constant medical interventions.

Take care

🥂

Wow! That was an unenviable package, Edith! I hope the voice training doesn’t adversely affect your sense of humour 😂😂.

Have a fun time on your break from all things medical. 🥂

So glad the implant went well. I found it much easier than a root canal any day! And at the end, a super new tooth which will last a lifetime.
