I've just been diagnosed with a tumor in my left parotid gland (just below the ear at the corner of the jaw).  These tumors are rare but this happens to be my "telephone ear." I noticed with my old phone, it would get very hot after a few minutes use and would occasionally give me headaches after use.  I don't actually use it that much (400 to 600 minutes/month). Now I have to have surgery tomorrow to remove that salivary  gland and hope that it's not malignant. I have no doubt that it was caused by cell phone use!!!  We all need to stop holding these damn things next to our heads.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Bruce]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 20th 2008 9:50AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Cell Phones May Cause Salivary Gland Tumors]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/02/19/cell-phones-may-cause-salivary-gland-tumors/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/02/19/cell-phones-may-cause-salivary-gland-tumors/</guid><description><![CDATA[Not to sound over dramatic or paranoid, but salivary gland cancer is very serious! Google Roger Ebert's condition, it may make you think twice.  To the person who says, "Everything gives you cancer, so I'm gonna do it anyway" - you must be really young. I'm 42, in great health, but the illusion of my youth/immortality is long gone! All of these gadgets are wonderful tools to this generation of luxury and abundance.  Personally, we need to go back to the simple life. All of the things that are supposed to make life "easier" are going to make our lives decline.  Tonight the government is going to shoot down a satellite that is carrying toxic waste. Where do you think it's going to land?  All over our atmosphere...every action has a consequence.<br>FOOD FOR THOUGHT  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Kat]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 20th 2008 9:58AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Cell Phones May Cause Salivary Gland Tumors]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/02/19/cell-phones-may-cause-salivary-gland-tumors/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/02/19/cell-phones-may-cause-salivary-gland-tumors/</guid><description><![CDATA[I have just used a cell phone about two years and I already have problems, but tumors can come from a lot of sources. Toxins build up in your body over time cause them. And being stung by a wasp can cause them or any bug that bites you can lay eggs in your skin, as a matter of parasiets causing more tumors and cancer than I could imagine cell phones doing.  For my own granddaughter was struck with cancer after being "bitten" by a spider, so whose to say it did not lay eggs in her when it bite her? Bugs cause more tumors and cancer than cell phones as I  see it! For she did not sue a cell phone on her leg!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[susan]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 25th 2008 1:45AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Cell Phones May Cause Salivary Gland Tumors]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/02/19/cell-phones-may-cause-salivary-gland-tumors/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/02/19/cell-phones-may-cause-salivary-gland-tumors/</guid><description><![CDATA[This is the first time I have ever commented on an article on the web. My 20 year old daughter had her parotid gland on the right side removed when she was 18. She too was constantly on her cell phone. Now she has to deal with the results of removing the gland. Her face stays red and that side sweats when she eats or smells food that is appetizing. She is just now getting back the feeling on that side because of the nerves that had to be cut. The surgery left a permanent indention on that side of her face.<br>I've never thought that a cell phone could have caused the tumor, but now I think it makes sense. Hopefully all these cell phone junkies will take notice. I know I am going to make sure my daughter reads this article.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[LaGray]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 20th 2008 10:30AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Cell Phones May Cause Salivary Gland Tumors]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/02/19/cell-phones-may-cause-salivary-gland-tumors/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/02/19/cell-phones-may-cause-salivary-gland-tumors/</guid><description><![CDATA[I find it hard to believe, but I will definately start texting more! ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Esther]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 20th 2008 10:29AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Cell Phones May Cause Salivary Gland Tumors]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/02/19/cell-phones-may-cause-salivary-gland-tumors/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/02/19/cell-phones-may-cause-salivary-gland-tumors/</guid><description><![CDATA[seems like using the hands-free option on cell phones may be way to cut down the chances of this particular type of cancer...<br><br>and i wonder if anyone has studied a link between cell phone use and lymphoma. my husband was diagnosed with that cancer a few years ago and the largest tumors were on his neck, just below his ear. hmmmm....maybe i'll insist that he start using the hands-free feature on his cell phone, just in case.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[kerainbolt]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 20th 2008 10:41AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Cell Phones May Cause Salivary Gland Tumors]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/02/19/cell-phones-may-cause-salivary-gland-tumors/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/02/19/cell-phones-may-cause-salivary-gland-tumors/</guid><description><![CDATA[If this is true my neighbor must have a tumor as big as a basket ball.I think her cell phone is attached to her key chain because I have never seen her in five years get in or out of her car without being on the phone !]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[mike Hunt]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 20th 2008 10:59AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Cell Phones May Cause Salivary Gland Tumors]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/02/19/cell-phones-may-cause-salivary-gland-tumors/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/02/19/cell-phones-may-cause-salivary-gland-tumors/</guid><description><![CDATA[I only use my cellphone in an emergency and talk maybe 30 seconds.

Remember the CB craze? I was part of it. I even wrote a play that was intended to be performed on CB at 2 AM. CB was way more fun than cell phones.
