Hi Bean:
I'm sure other Forum members will join in when they see your post, but just wanted to tell you my feelings. I think dysplasia is maybe a pre-cancer condition, but NOT CANCER. The ENT can verify this. I'm confused as to why you wouldn't want treatments if you did have cancer, when the treatments could save your life. Sure, treatments aren't easy, but to me that is better than doing nothing, and getting worse to where you would really suffer. You certainly do not have to take any treatments, but I've yet to meet anyone who refused a chance to live. I'm glad you came to this Forum because others will join in, I'm sure, to help you with your problem.
A Forum Friend,
