Just an update
Went in for a 3 week check up and there was a little spot that didn't close. Gave it 3 more weeks and still not closed. The Dr opens a drawer and pulls out a package of Zig-Zag papers. I'm thinking...Cool, maybe this stuff will be better than the anesthesia .... but he tells me that he is going to take a small piece and cover the hole flat to give a form for the cells to grow on and close the hole. I had about 70% hearing in that ear then. I go back on the 22nd to check on the hole. Still have a little taste problem. I call it a sweet aftertaste and he asked if it was a metallic taste, maybe. Still says it will go away. Ruins the taste is Salsa.
Now on the 9th its skin cancer removal on my cheek. Not that cheek.
As my Dad used to say...Getting old ain't for sissys.
