Don't get me started. I have seen more Docs than I can count in 4 months. I have no thyroid. I had milder pain 3 years ago and they yanked it out thinking it was cancer. It was not. I keep going and have been scoped, They note some sores that come and go ( different areas), slightly red and irritated and one tonsil is marginally inflamed.
They even biopsied it once, but she missed the spot she wanted. I then clotted and was thrown on coumadin, so no biopsies until I am off that I have not done any tobacco, Binge drink about once a decade for a few weeks at a time. So alcohol should not be much of a factor, because I do not drink in between.
I have terrible allergies and was just started on singular 4 days ago. That may be helping with the pain, but is making me hoarse a bit. I was just told I am allergic to everything and that severe allergies can inflame a tonsil.
So, I asked about reflux and they said that and allergies are probably the cause, but they are not sure.So here I am in the ER (thinking I have pneumonia as I waited 2 days to go in) They are telling me I have a clot and that cancer can cause this and do I have cancer. Man, ignorance is bliss. I wish they had not told me. Monday is a CT, she wil;l do a biopsy if needed but I have to stop the coumadin for week.
