So in June 2018 I was suffering real bad with a sore throat. Constant pain when swallowing and even just in general. I had loads of time off work, and I then noticed a lump in the side of my neck. I had countless doctor appointments with ‘could be this could be that’ with no real answers, antibiotics did nothing. Beginning to worry I demanded some answers and finally managed to get referred to ENT. Had an appointment in October 2018 for an ultrasound on my lump, they had no concerns and said it was just a swollen lymph node, but I had no reasons as to why or what could cause it or how long it would last. They also checked my throat and said it could be acid reflux. But tablets they prescribed did nothing. I had a follow up appointment around 6 months later explaining to them that the lump was still there and I was still having issues with a sore throat. I felt like they wasn’t taking me seriously and fobbed me off with some throat spray. This is an ongoing problem and I feel like I’m constantly having pain in my throat, and with this lump that’s been there for over a year too it’s causing me to stress even more. I thought it would of gone down by now and I’m worried in case something has been overlooked. Am I right in worrying? Should I go back to the doctors? What more could they do? Any advice is welcome.
