Thank you for your insight Brotha! Makes sense to me and I got the surgery on lock for 1st of the year. They are doing a complete removal although the mass is on just one side. My big concern pos surgery is losing my vocal ability. I thought after a couple weeks to add smt to help heal. I've been cruising quite a while and since I have a month was thinking to stop all together 4 weeks out. Any thoughts on that? My idea was to keep my system as clean as possible and hit the nutrabullet with organic greens, organic lemons and beet root.
