Do I have throat cancer

Hi

I've had on and off pains in my throat with difficulty swallowing, sensation of something stuck, ear aches, head aches and sore mouth for almost a year I went to the doctors and because I was having a lot of chest pains and with the whole throat thing they put it straight down to acid reflux so they put me on omezapole to try and sort everything out. Within the first few weeks the pills sorted the chest pain issues but I have continued to have the feeling in my throat with headaches and all but do you think I should worry bout the thought of it being cancer or not

Thanks for your time 

  • Hi Huann and welcome to the forum.

    Unfortunately we can't offer a diagnosis or give advice on your symptoms but as you've mentioned they are persisting it may be worth booking another visit to your GP as they'll be able to let you know if this is any cause for concern and give you the reassurance you're seeking at this time.

    Kind regards,

  • How are u doing I'm having the exact same symptoms and also been put on omeprazole but no relief. They also say anxiety can cause these weird throat symptoms and my dr even gave me antidepressants to try but haven't tried them yet.
