Red Ring Tupperware Photography & Tinfoil Talk (15)

I'm back!

Is Feng ever over here? (I've forgotten his username) I photographed myself making a breve and wanted to show him I STILL suck at coffee art!

^^^ Awesome coffee pics Lisa - now I'm hankering for caffeine!

Mooo - afternoon all!

HUGE SIGH OF RELIEF!

Without boring you all to tears, I've recently mentioned some medical stuff I've been going through. Soreness in my neck and throat for about 2 months, trouble swallowing, etc. Blah blah blah. I kept getting some vibes from my doctor that this could be something "horribly serious". I love it when they scare you like that, and they haven't even done the d@mn tests yet.

I saw the Ears/Nose/Throat guy today, and he shoved a camera tube down my throat – and it’s NOT cancer. My thyroid sonogram from Monday also came back as “normal” (though they don’t tell you much), so now it will be a normal round of x-rays and other minor tests to see if the docs can figure what is ailing my neck. It's shaping up to be something muscular/skeletal, and that I can live with. Yay!

Whew!

Thanks POTN firends for all the support you gave me. It helped keep my nerves a bit less jangled.

Chris, that's very good news.

Chris, I must have missed something because I only knew that you had a few tests going on, not that it was potentially something very serious, but it's good to hear that it's not as serious as first thought! I've been wondering where you've been lately, good to see you're (sort of) back.

Great news, Chris!

Great news Chris...now perhaps they can put your neck back in joint and you can be feeling better!

Really. Well it was cold last weekend. I hear today is the best day this week so I suspect it will go back down hill from here.

COLD Monday morning too!!!! It's warmed up nicely!

I suspected that you were facing something like that based on your comments.... glad that it's not cancer! Hopefully they'll figure out what it is quickly and get you on the mend!!!!

Chris: Glad to hear it's not worst case. Hope they get you sorted out sooner rather than later.

Glad it wasn't anything truly unpleasant. Something like that can really weigh on your mind when you're not sure if it's life-threatening or not.

Thank you kind friends, I can't tell you how much it means to me to me to be part of this community ♥♥♥.

If anything I long for the kind of kinship that expressed over in the TPBM discussion thread, and I hope that one day I can make the jump from the online friendships to a real meeting with POTN fellows.

Chief - what happened to your avatar & info? Did your cold upper lip offend the TF?

You are certainly in the right part of the country for making POTN friends. There's a real cluster of them in the Washington area, and/or not for from there.

I removed the avatar and other information in hopes of becoming a bit more anonymous. Turns out I'm not universally loved, and I'm just lowering my profile while I think of ways to improve my image, and to mend a couple fences.

Basically, I'm just taking a rest.

Lisa, fine coffee you made

Feng's username is Wacko

and Chris, I didn't even know you were having any medical tests, but glad that the Dr has given you the greenlight so far on one part Just don't get all soppy with us!!
