Who could have realized that "unremarkable" is such a wonderful word.


Ain't that just the truth.


So, what were the results? I'm on pins and needles here!

Acupuncture is certainly not extreme. It's a well-accepted form of medical
practice. I can't say whether it would help with Tweed's symptoms, but I'm
always surprised to hear some of the things it can do, which I wouldn't have
suspected. I've always thought of acupuncture as a treatment for chronic
pain, but apparently it can do a lot more than that.

has any of it returned? and whilst at the qwack you might inquire about
accupuncture, extreme but ancedotally it seems to help if done
consistently, Lee

I will get the results from the CT scan of my sinuses and the MRI scan of
my brain tomorrow from my own doctor.
I've been waiting since 8th February.

The thing is, that the loss of smell and taste (which I have had since
August 2012) can be from a tumour, and I am always waiting for my cancer
to strike again.

So I phoned my ENT (Ear nose & throat) consultant's secretary just before
Easter to enquire about the results. She said she would fax them to my
doctor and said "so many people are phoning for their results today"
Maybe they waited too long then, eh?
Anyway, I assume she did, and she told me to make an appointment with my
doctor to talk it though, but I had to wait for the doc I wanted until
tomorrow. Now when they say "talk it through, that's a bit of a worry,
isn't it?"
However, the ENT consultant sent me a copy letter he'd sent to my GP a
few days ago with nothing much in it except to say that my scans were
"unremarkable"
Which means I don't have a tumour.

I'm still going to the docs tomorrow to see what the full results are.
There is still something wrong. I cannot taste tea, it's like drinking
hot water, and that is very dire for a Brit.
There are lots of other things I cannot taste too. Prawns (I loved
them..)

any is a plus, but as has been discussed before there are truly some safety
issues if you don't get it back so you simply must try, Lee

Some, not sufficient.

anything to do with needles is extreme to me,... a bit needle phobic, but it
certainly has merit, in chicago there was a radio host team husband/wife,
over night on wgn 720 she lost her sense of smell entirely after a hidious
flu, she tried everything and only after the needles did she get anything
back, i moved so lost the end of the story, they were steve and jonnie, if
anyone wants to google their site and the info, Lee
