Thankfully, my insurance doesn't require any kind of referral to see a specialist (in fact, I find it's easier just to go right to a specialist since general doctors here don't like to deal with anything outside of their realm).<br /><br />WellPlannedLifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14639851771653623399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6861145849543681491.post-83136921946133941132012-05-26T13:55:48.557-04:002012-05-26T13:55:48.557-04:00I know this post is quite old now but I just came ...I know this post is quite old now but I just came across it. I have the same condition as you. I've had it for nearly 6 years, and have found the doctors here in the UK so unhelpful. They refused to even let me see an ENT. Do you have constant pressure in your ears and a popping sound everytime you swallow as well as the tinnitus? That's been the most difficult part for me to deal with.

I am happy for you. I think your outcome has a good bit to do with your commitment to You and Your health. The CBT, the good health steps, and your inner strength. Well done. I hope the ear is doing well.

Thanks for being glad and proud (I feel so honored!). In all honesty, I didn't think I would handle it as well as I did - but you do what you have to do.

I guess we're both glass half empty sometimes. <br /><br />But, I'm SUPER happy that you are ok, and glad (and proud, if that doesn't sound too weird) that you were able to stay so calm and positive throughout. I don't think I could have done the same if I were in your shoes. <br /><br />So, yay Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6861145849543681491.post-57807411886116351572012-03-25T23:31:43.380-04:002012-03-25T23:31:43.380-04:00Oh no Kanalt, sounds like you have had a really ro...Oh no Kanalt, sounds like you have had a really rough time! Glad that the biopsy was benign that must have been such a relief. Also it is amazing that you still found it a positive experience albeit a rather scary one.<br /><br />I hope the rest of 2012 is much better for you and glad to know that CBT works :-)caribbean princesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01732674178611729478noreply@blogger.com
