I have developed a cyst in my tonsils, I've been felling really unwell over the last few weeks and a couple of days ago I noticed a lump on my tonsils. I was initially told it was tonsillitis, but my partner and I knew that it definitely wasn't that so we got a second opinion who confirmed that it was actually a cyst. The doctor said it probably wasn't cancerous, but he can't know without doing tests. What happens now? What do I do? How do I cope with this? I'm managing the pain because I'm on really strong painkillers for chronic pain, but I'm so stressed and anxious, because I'm also really high risk of cancer anyway because of my autoimmune disease. I'm so scared.
