Just reaching out to people to ask for advice on issues I’ve had over the last few weeks with hoarseness/no voice  and a cough 7 weeks in total. I have swollen lymph nodes too in my neck.

I have lost nearly a stone and a half in that time and going for a Laryngoscopy soon but I am so worried as I have quite a few side effects and hope people can tell me what it is x

  • Hello What_todo,

    I can understand you might be worried, but you've done the right thing in going to see the doctor, as you'll know only know more once tests are done. When youre worried that you may have cancer, it can be natural to think the worst, but this can end up increasing anxiety rather than making you feel better. There is some information here on what to expect for the laryngoscopy and don't be afraid to ask questions so everything is clear in you mind.

    All the best,
