2nd styloidectomy scheduled

I had my left styloid removed intraorally on July 9. My right styloidectomy is scheduled for December 2. My left side dr. was able to do intraoral - the right side will have to be external because of the angle. This is again Dr. Tennant in Louisville. He is an ENT surgeon that specializes in cancer. I have not gone into detail about my various symptoms - the couple I did share, he didn’t think had to do with elongated styloid processes., I have complete faith in him that he can get it out and he probably doesn’t need to know about all the headaches, etc, etc… just as long as I have relief of the symptoms, I’ll be happy.

@GiGi1965 - I just checked to make sure Dr. Tennant is on our Doctors List & he’s there! I’m so glad you’ve updated us and expect you had some symptoms relief after your first styloidectomy. It’s good to know that Dr. Tennant is willing to do either approach when he does a styloidectomy. I’ll add your Dec. surgery date to my calendar so I can pray for you then. Please let us know how your surgery goes & also your recovery. We also hope for your symptoms to go away once your styloid is much shorter. :hugs: :pray:

I hope that your surgery is successful even if Dr Tennant didn’t agree with your symptoms! Good that he can take time out from cancer patients to do the surgery…
