It's wonderful news that you don't have cancer -- that's what counts above everything else, including being a great cook.

I could swear that after the iodine incident my feet are less full of ants than before. Could there be a connection? Does iodine impact on circulation?

I will have a final meeting with the doctor on Feb. 18th. 3 biopsies, scanner, 12 blood tests: we'll see what happens. I suspect it will show an excess of antibodies (which attack nerve fibers), and there's no cure for it. But we'll see. Best of all of you. Tom
