Photos!

Ok, if I were more organized and a seasoned blogger, I would have posted pictures throughout this entire journey, but alas, I kept forgetting. I did take pictures though so here they are:

No, this is not a vagina. Don't get excited. This is a photo of my vocal cyst. You're looking down my throat and the lump on the right side of the photo is actually on my left vocal chord. It's supposed to be straight on both sides. My left chord has the cyst, and the right isn't straight due to irritation. 

Ok, this is a photo of my chords on my June 18th appointment when the doctors were concerned that I wasn't healing quickly enough. You can see the edges are still a bit lumpy...  They were more concerned about it being pink, but maybe it's easier to see that at another angle. I took pics at each appointment, but accidentally erased most of them so sorry for the leap forward.

This is the latest scoped image that they took on August 2nd. They were much happier with this than any of the other photos so, I guess it looks good! To be honest I can't really tell a difference haha. Of course they watch it as a video and here I'm only showing still images. The white stuff is mucus. I know. Gross. 

Anyway, you can see that it's still not perfect, but the edges will continue to heal throughout the next year and get more smooth. Kinda neat, huh? And nasty. It's embarrassing when unsuspecting people look through the pictures on my computer :)
