Suspected nasal cancer

Hi I'm new to this page. So basically about a year ago I started getting really bad congestion I atcually thought I just had hayfever all of a sudden then I started to get ulcers in my nose which I would pick and now a big hole has formed in my septum that is getting bigger very quickly and I feek like it's only my right side of my nostril is blocked now and when I feel like I need to clear it all this thick blood stained jelly mucus is coming out along with wot looks like membraine. I went to my gp about this she examined my nose looked very concerned and mentioned the word cancer. She has referred me to ENT as a possible cancer diagnosis my appointment is on Tuesday I'm so scared. Has anybody else had this experience 

  • Hello Keels-103

    I'm sorry to hear that you've had some ongoing concerns with your nose over the last year. It's understandable that you've been feeling anxious. 

    How did you get on at your ENT appointment today? I hope that the specialist was able to give you some answers and reassurance. 

    If there's anything you'd like to talk through with one of our nurses you're welcome to call them on 0808 800 4040, Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm. I know they will be happy to listen and offer any advice, information and support they can. 

    Best wishes,
