Hi... Okay I didn't have any bleeding with my tumor, until after they did a biopsy, then it was tender and sore and would bleed occasionally. But I can tell you that bleeding from your mouth and a lot of weight loss is not normal. Especially If you are not trying to lose it.

If you are bleeding a lot, that would very much explain why you are so tired, if you are not eating properly, or a lot then that would help explain continuing weight loss and also cause chronic fatigue, however - your initial complaints were bleeding and weight loss, and I repeat that is not normal.

Have they actually done a visual examination of your throat with a scope? My dr.s all stuck a tube through my nose, and examined my through, nose, airway, and tongue.

MRIs are great but they don't catch everything. My advice is to go to a totally different ENT guy preferably one at the cancer hospital, and tell him your symptoms, and see what he says. Don't stop until you get an answer.

Best of luck and hope you feel better and get answers soon.
