I won't be doing any singing for awhile...

I just got back from the state's leading laryngologist, who after looking down my throat with a scope, said that my "acid reflux" is not causing my chronic hoarseness. Apparently, my vocal chords are not closing properly. The left side looks like a chunk is missing (??). The more I strain and try to talk the worse it makes it. They have scheduled a CT scan of my head and neck next week. Then I go back to meet with the doctor the following week. As an aside, I knew that the doctor looked familiar, he said I looked familiar too. I then remembered, he's a figure skater and took lessons from Roman (Kaitlyn and Kristen's coach) every Thursday morning at 5:30 AM. He'd already be on the ice when we got there warming up for our lesson. He was more into ice dancing. He's probably about my age or so (he has gray hair, so he could be younger, or older). We had a few moments remembering stuff and he asked why Kaitlyn was not still skating, even if she was in college!!! When he found out that Kaitlyn may major in physical therapy he gave me his card to give to her. Anyway, Joe is relieved that I won't have to jack the bed up on one end (to help with acid reflux), and I'm relieved that I don't have throat cancer or anything. Although, I may have to have injections (I'm thinking something like Botox) in my vocal chord so it will "puff" up and close properly. We'll see, only if I get lots of drugs and am asleep while they do it.......
