[QUOTE=Mslday;549193]Hi Woodsman,

I wasn't saying that it is a brain tumour , just that that is one of the many things that they rule out. Obviously I don't know your history but it sounded like your Otolaringologist was dismissive of you and your complaints. Personally I'd go for a second opinion.

If I lived in the big city, I probably would go for that second opinion but, as it is, I would have to travel about 200 miles to get to a good ENT. I have lived with this for a long time and can continue to do so for the next 45 years, unless it gets much worse.
Thanks again.
