Is this really blog worthy?

I don't know if sharing my mystery throat infection with the world is really appropriate, but it takes my mind off of things and I think one or two people out there may like staying apprised at my situation. I'm back at the ER... We'll see how it goes this time. This trip was Tanya's call. When I was having a hard time swallowing she had me show her my throat and she said it's nearly swollen shut. Even the 'hanging ball thingy' as she calls the uvula is swollen all crazy.

Gosh...that sounds awful! One of my friends has that same thing...or so it sounds! Her throat has been hurting for about 2 months now & no diagnosis!!! freaky....i don't want to get that!

Good luck & hope you get well soon...oh by the way...your wife is right--that Hanging Ball thingy in the back of your throat really is called a UVULA! :)

ha ha!!!

Hi Merrianne, thanks for finding our blogs... we love more readers (especially ones that leave comments). I love the word Uvula, that and umbilicus were two of my favorite anatomy vocab words. Thanks for the warm wishes.

I just noticed that although this picture is with my lame phone and horribly back lit you can still see the swelling of my throat as my glands are seemingly bulging out of the right side of my neck. Super.
