It's been a while, but an update beckons.

I was in for my first out-patient appointment two and a bit weeks ago and the (not my Consultant) doctor wanted me to come in for another scan, despite my Consultant telling me I wouldn't get one for 6 months due to the tissue damage the radiotherapy had caused.

Now, I was unperturbed by this at first - somewhat junior doc, I thought, covering his ass. OK. However - I looked at the appointment letter properly today, and it's for an ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration ~ in other words, exactly the same test that confirmed my original diagnosis. I can only presume it's to be on the slightly ambiguous-feeling 'muscle' I felt in my neck on Christmas Day.......

I can't help but feel slightly concerned about this (shitting myself might be nearer the mark!) so I'd be obliged for your continued good thoughts, people!

Thank you.
