Mid January Update

First of all, let me wish you all a Healthy, Healthy, and Healthy New Year.

I saw my Radiation Oncologist On Jan 3rd, all is well, and my next appointment with the surgeon on February 20th and the Radiation Oncologist in April. I have stopped taking the MucinexDM, it dryes my Mucositis, and also the little saliva I have. There are moments that I realize my mouth is wet, now more often than before. I think the acupuncture might be working. I was told that I should start feeling more mouth wetness than before. Right now I am dry as a desert. I am very thankful to the positive results I have accomplished thanks to the doctors, nurses, technicians and staff from Beth Israel Hospital in New York City. Thank you guys!

I started listing out of pocket expenses, for tax purpose, $8,600. which includes, my co-pays, meds, and transportation. I am working on total expenses including the covered. I am guessing close to $100k. Maybe next posting.
