Hi all, i hope i dont offend anybody by posting to this group as i've not had a diagnosis.. i have however been experiencing some symptoms which are concerning me and I've convinced myself i must have cancer. I have been having some trouble swallowing for a few weeks, food getting stuck and sometimes drinks coming up out of my nose, i have also experienced heartburn and excessive wind (belching) after eating, i can feel a swelling within my neck but cant see or feel anything on the outside to touch. I'm so worried i have two very small children and the worry is taking over me, I'm currently sat crying with anxiety while i wrap their presents instead of enjoying christmas eve with my children. I've read some really scary things online about throat cancer having the highest mortality rate and it's literally ruining Christmas the thought. I'm going to go the doctor as soon as its back open after xmas period. No real reason for this post i just need to tell someone how I'm feeling because i dont want to ruin Christmas for my husband by bringing it up without a real diagnosis, just more of a match of symptoms...
