A new development...

Ever since this journey began in 2008 Michael started complaining about an annoying ringing in his ears.
Because we have been in the thick of so many other things involved with this disease, it was put on the back burner.  But, I began to notice that he was either "not listening" to me (which is not uncommon for men to do!! LOL) or there was something wrong because he was giving me wrong answers to some of the questions I would ask...When confronted he would just brush it off...but it has been increasing to almost a constant.  Today we went to have his hearing tested...he has a good deal of hearing loss in his right ear and partial hearing loss in his left ear...we will be making an appointment with and ears, nose and throat specialist as soon as it is approved by the VA.  We are not sure if this hearing loss is from the Waldenstrom or if it is just the progression of age...but he is only 62...His lymph node tumors are reappearing under his chin, so I will call the Oncologist tomorrow...

If you are a regular visitor here you might see Merry Me here too....Please send out warm hugs and blessings to her...She lost her father on Sunday. She has been a blessing to me in so many ways ....You are in my thoughts Mary!
BE WELL
