Hi all
sorry to make another post
Does anybody have experiences with second opinions?
I saw a specialist yesterday who looked at an Opg x ray and felt my lump and told me that’s just the way my face is? When it is not just how my face is, I did makeup art on my own face for years so know my own structure very well and my jaw was even and normal, I noticed this lump in November last year
she is still doing me a ct scan as I gave her a funny look but it’s no longer on the cancer pathway and will be routine which might take 10 weeks.. which seems far too long if it is something bad I also told her it’s been growing how can it keep growing if it’s a normal part of my face?
for context I discovered a hard non movable lump on my jawline right next to my chin on the right side, she didn’t even ask me about any oral symptoms I experience only symptoms around the lump and if she asked I would have been able to say I’ve had a sore throat for a year, I constantly need to clear my throat I get tinnitus, I also get numb feelings in my mouth
Any advice on how to go about this with the nhs?
