Cyst

Anyone had a tonsil cyst , had mine drained but it came back now I'm having a biopsy and other procedures. Please has anyone been for this op I would like to now what to be prepared for.

  • Hi Molly, 

    I'm sorry to hear that you need some additional tests due to your tonsil cyst. Did the team tell you what kind of procedure you would be having? 

    If you'd like to chat to someone you could give our team of nurses a call. It may be that they're able to answer some of the questions you have and give you some reassurance. You can call them on 0808 800 4040, Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm. 

    I hope that you don't have to wait too long for your appointments. 

    Best wishes,

  • Hi Jen 

     I'm not very good at navigating round the site. I have only just seen this message.

    I've since  had a biopsy on the tonsil cyst a laryngoscopy, and Oesophagoscopy Now I have been told that it's not a cyst I'm now going to radiology for a scan on my neck and chest. That will be Monday 19th Aug 2019.   Thanks
