but if it gets worse, if i get fever, if i get pain, if i can tell it's getting bigger, then i need to go back.

because it has changed. and i'll need surgery.

it's not that big of a deal, people have surgery on their throats, tonsils get removed, such and so forth.

but if it gets to the point where i have to have surgery, i think, i'm fairly sure, he told me what it would turn into.

and what it turns into is precancerous.

and that in itself is a ball to think about.

but the odds of that all happening, i need to stress, are very slim.

i am, after all, invincible.

but i felt the need to share.
