So last week I decided to send Dr. Chen's office an e-mail to see if there was any possible surgery date for me yet. The response I got was that they won't know March's schedule until mid-feb. So here is hoping that I won't have to wait more then 2 week until I know when I can get this over and done with.

Things are pretty unchanged in how I'm feeling. One exception being that I now have a new sound in my left ear. It's hard to explain, but it's kind of a cross between a pot of boiling water and the sound of a piece of cardboard that kids put on their bike spokes. Not sure if that makes any sense to anyone, but that's the best I can explain it.

So the waiting continues.
