Hi Jonanthan- Well how frustrating that they weren't able to pinpoint what the problem is. I know it isn't cheap but I would seek out another opinion or two to resolve this once and for all. A lot of ENTs are allergy focused but some of them have experience with cancer (again not saying that thisis what it is at all...). The ENT I saw was focused on allergys but he had served some time in the army and had come across oral cancer during his training. I know its hard because you have to get referred in order to see these Drs. ..which is why I couldn't get in to see one myself until months after I hadn't been feeling well. I had made calls to ENT's in my network and they wouldn't see me without a referral.

Be persistant and don't feel like a hypocondriac or feel self conscious about making these Drs. do thier job and figure out what is wrong. My very "reputable" GP definitely made me feel like that. You know your body better than any Dr. and if something is off you should investigate it until you figure out what is wrong once and for all. So sorry you are in discomfort! Did the Doc prescribe you anything to try and alleviate your symptoms ?

Hoping you feel better soon. Def investigate some other options.

Hope you start feeling good soon smile
