Lymph Flows 2.0: Update
I've passed the one-year anniversary of the first sign of tonsil regrowth. I marked the day quietly with this posting (among two others less related to Missing Lymph) @ Good Bloggin' , my personal web-based diary in which I write almost daily.
Why I don't write here more often? Because it's painful. My progress in what I refer to as a "re-tonsillation" leading to "lymphatic renewal" is very personal, many times I've felt sick as I feel my tonsils @ the back of my head lymphatically try to reach every point of my body, and fail. It seems that slowly, the network that was disrupted by my tonsillectomy is being rebuilt but in the meantime, I feel some lymphatically "dead" spots -- on my right cheek, on the sides of my chest, @ the front of my legs, my entire back...
Where does my lymph flow now?

Where does my lymph flow now?
- Through my skull, from the back to the front of my head.
- Through my lungs, I think I've recovered "lymphatic breathing" straight up from my diaphragm.
- Through my bone marrow, I feel it inside the heels of my feet if I concentrate serenely.
- Up to the surface of my head, I've continued to lose chunks of hair, falling out as if the lymph there is pushing them out, new hair is the replacement, finer, lustrous and simply prettier.
Do I have stronger allies now in my quest to scientifically prove my re-tonsillation? I do, I just don't feel free to publicly disclose their names.
Please, read "Avanti del Suo Tempo" another Missing Lymph-related Good Bloggin' posting, which shows exactly the kinds of people who would be my strongest allies.
