"So the results are pretty good. I most likely do NOT have any cancer or any serious illness. Distal throat short section 10 mm thickness on the scan. I bet it is some inflammation in the throat. That's all." — @Wolf

I'm sure that was a relief! It's always good to get things checked out. 👍

@Based Psychiatrist Maybe the thickness is an anatomic problem, not disease, and my voice is just from the virus I caught in March?

@Catina I am holding 80% of prozac for three weeks, and I think I will hold three weeks more. For a total of six weeks. Or even longer than that, seven weeks, since having a fatty liver is not that terrible and I am doing fine at 80% of prozac. What do you think?

Holding is an important part of this process, so if your gut is telling you do to this then I think it's a good idea. 👍

Great, thanks. I will simply tell my clinician I had leftover pills from a previous prescription (because I do) and I saw no problem with holding for an extra week or even two. With all the risk associated with messing with your pills, I feel the need to have my pills under perfect clinician oversight.
