Avatar f tn You need to get that checked out and fast!!! My husband's uncle had the same thing. The Dr's didn't do anything about it until it had grown and started to effect him. By that time, he had full on esophoghaus cancer!!! It was stage 2 or maybe 3. They gave him a year. He lived a little longer due to alternative therapys he tried in other countries. He basically starved to death because the cancer ate away at his throat and he couldn't eat or even drink for the last month or so.
Avatar m tn I dont know of anyone else in my family that may have had any type cancer. Sence moms death i have ran to hospitals to be scanned and tested for cancers mainly lung ca.

I only had a slight fever of 99.2 and that was cause my heat was wide open.
Avatar f tn s throat cancer or something serious. I would think having 2 thyroid ultrasounds something would be seen. Also no swollen glands or lymph nodes. I'm scared to death. Any help or support would mean the world. Thanks!

Avatar m tn Then I thought of the worst what if its HIV, I lost it and went crazy crying,praying. It was crazy. I went back In time and realized 10 after the I incident I had a soar throat that went away after a week. As I kept read the symptoms of HIV I would get them. I'm going crazy because I never had sex with her how could it be. I only have had two sexual partners in my entire life. One I had been with for 6 years strong and the other for a month. I always use protection.
Avatar f tn I'm 19, and I've always been a nervous person. As a child, I worried about everything. If my mom didn't answer my call, I'd think she's dead or If she sick, I'd think she's dying. For years, I stopped worrying and it came back in middle school. I got talked about a lot so, I'm nervous around big groups of people not an individual person. My worrying gets worse when something involving death is around. I fear death. Anything associated with it makes me very scared.
Avatar n tn my mother thinks she has throat cancer...i think barretts....since she was little she would always have her stomach acid flow through her throat.....( idon't know if that makes sense, like when she is laying down it flows back into her throat) and so over the years, her throat has suffered from the acid...she also feels pain in her throat...her throat burns everytime she talks and swallows (occasionally). her voice has became rough/scratchy. she also feels a lump in her throat. help me....
331673 tn?1199354285 I was given a choice to either quit smoking and hope that we were early enough to have caught it, and hope that my throat repairs itself, or end up with throat cancer and all that goes with it. I quit smoking. My following check ups have been all good. I am LUCKY, because I didnt wait, I have lost to many friends and family to cancer, (on my husbands side even non smokers). So please dont wait, get to a Doctor. I may not be here today if I didnt Jump to it.
Avatar f tn It helped to calm my fears and he talks about the same article I read which states high strain hpv (not the kind causing warts but the kind causing cervical cancer) is now a big factor in the rise of throat cancer. According to him less than 5% of people with high strain develop throat cancer. I can rest a little better now. Thanks again.
Avatar n tn My husband has/ had throat cancer. He went through kemo and radiation. He is going to tested Fri. to see if treatment worked. He still has very bad breath. Also 2 other spots have shown up too. He also has a large lump on his leg.
Avatar f tn I went to see an ENT and he did a scope (went in through the nose and looked down at the throat), I had a CT of the throat, and an Ultrasound of my thryroid and a Upper GI Series (Barium Swallow). There was nothing he could see from the scoping, the CT came back negative, the Barium swallow showed mild to moderate acid reflux, and the ultrasound showed nodules (which the doc said was nothing to worry about). All in all everything that was done did not show any type of mass or obstruction.
Avatar n tn I suggest you see an Ear nose and throat specialist. They will be able to take a look in your nasal area as well as in your throat. So suggest to your family doctor you would like to see your local specialist.
Avatar m tn Hello I have been having some Throat Tightness, Its a feeling like a choking sensation, it doesn't bother me all of the time just every now and then. I am only 16 years old. Sometimes I have throat pain. I have had this a lot of my life, it comes and goes, sometimes it will stay away as long as a year or so, but somehow it manages to come back. Do you think that this could be some type of cancer of the throat? I did have a lot of sore throats when I was younger.
Avatar f tn I went to an endo recently just to have my thyroid checked, due to another doctor saying it might be a bit enlarged. I have had difficulty losing weight, felt fatigued, have alternating dry hair, always extremely dry skin, but those were the only "symptoms" of anything that might be wrong.
Avatar f tn Self diagnosis is generally wrong, and there are lots of things that can cause what you have decided must be cancer - googling for death is scaring you to death because you can always locate someone who tells you incorrectly that you can do a doctor's job.
Avatar m tn m scared to death. I do have several symptoms. Enlarged spleen, headaches, fatigue, sore throat, no weight loss but at times there has been. Please can someone tell me their story. I have an appointment with a Cardivascular surgeon/oncologist.
691673 tn?1230871263 which is why i fear this.. i keep connecting my symptoms to AIDS/or Cancer.. either way i think im on death row.. and also again.. i came back (-) after 3 months getting tested (for, HIV,everything blood involved, but going to get checked again..

1415711 tn?1286281354 It started when I found out about Michael Crichton dying of throat cancer (old news, I know). I started to get some throat soreness soon after that lasted for about 2 weeks. I made the mistake of googling "persistent sore throat" and of course self diagnosed myself with throat cancer (I smoked for about ten years when I was younger and also chewed tobacco for some years). I went to see my GP who assured me I was having some serious post nasal drip but was otherwise healty.
Avatar m tn Hey dromiii, how's your assh0le? It must be pretty serious for you not to have returned. The least you could do is post an update considering how you've been so near death these last couple years. We're all wondering how your penile, throat, and anal cancer are coming along. Have you had your penis, throat, and sphincter removed to prevent any spreading? That's what I'd do. Or perhaps you saw a psychiatrist and are not on a nice dose of SSRI inhibitors.
Avatar f tn I would not assume it is cancer until it is checked out. It might just be a case of sore throat. I know that once you have had cancer you think anything that comes up is cancer too. Be patient and wait for the doctors to determine what it is. God Bless you and your boyfriend. Just keep saying prayers for him. Take care.
Avatar m tn I am ok with him passing because he was a preacher for 32 years. He was diagnosed with throat cancer. Doctors said it was treatable. The cancer slowly ate away his main blood vessel in his neck. On Aug 28, 2011 i was with him when he hemridged and bleed to death in my lap at his home. I cant get visuals out of my head. My wife is starting to get frustraded with me because i get down mostly in the afternoons. I try to stay strong for my son. I just dont know what else to do.
