There's a cyst in my chin.
Excise the blip,
Don't paralyze my lip!

Seriously though, there is a small chance of lip paralysis. I asked the ENT if he meant as far as sensation, or movement. He said movement.

My girlfriend thinks I should just leave it alone. If the cyst doesn't pose a threat, leave it there and not risk the facial paralysis. I see her point, but I worry a  cyst left long enough might turn into a tumor or something. I haven't done any research, but my gut tells me to get rid of it. If my lip is affected and my speech is impeded, that might hurt my chances of working in radio or as a voice-over actor. Not that my chances are great now, but working in call centers for years, I have more than once been told I have a pleasant voice that would translate well to radio. I even listen to the radio, like, the real radio, not just podcasts. Although, most of the programs on the radio are also available for download as podcasts now. At least on CBC radio.

...I was wearing an onion on my belt, which was the style at the time...
