Thanks 

Iv had the camera up nose down throat not the best experience but it was clear thankfully 

I still get the pain in the side of throat it comes on and off and quite sever when it does  

it's weird sometimes I feel like I can make it worse with the way my neck is I do still worry about it but try to think positive which I'm not great at 

how are you 

The results did come back clear, but once more, nothing is ever followed up.  Sadly it looks like it's deja vu from last year as recently got a cold/cough and my throat is once again sore.  I just do not know what to do anymore.  Thank you so much for asking Nideba, and hope you are ok xx

I have been suffering with a sore throat for 5 months now and feel as though its getting worse. I have had blood tests which were fine. Also camera up the nose and checking throat. Everything ok apart from oral thrush. Was given tablets for that. Throat still very sore and feel as though I have sinus problems. Feels worse after eating and got put on lanzaprozole but that has done nothing. Waiting for another appointment at Ent. Seriously depressed with it now. 

Sorry to hear you are still suffering Micky. I have the same and my sinuses are having problems too. Tried saline nasal rinse but it did something odd to my right sinus and it is all blown out and blocking my nostril. I am terrified that is cancer too. I am on a waiting list for ENT  but no idea if and when will be seen as my relationship with my Doctor is at an all time low.  I feel so depressed to and wanted to end my life on a few occasions recently. I get no help there either and cannot even take antidepressants as I have an eye condition.  I am terrified I will get this coronavirus too.  I feel like I am a prisoner in my own home and when I do go out I feel panicky. I so hope you get your appointment soon and they can help you.

I was told every visit when I had a camera down that they couldn't see anything ( I hade sore throat 5 months ) . I then noticed pea size lumps on my neck , swollen lymph glands so they did a biopsy & MRI my cancer is at the base of my tongue never showed up when looked at by the camera . Thank god my lymph became enlarged . I am just waiting for biopsies on my lymph & a CT scan to  get my cancer staged and then I'm ready to start treatment . 36 radio & 6 chemo . We know our own bodies I believe Go back & back again . If you have health insurance use that or if you can afford it go for a private opinion . Good luck I hope you get it sorted & I hope it's not cancer x x x PScjust because they can't see anything with their camera doesn't mean it's not there I'm proof of that . X x x
