Tina thank you for the reply i appreciate it
I understand what you mean it is just extremely frustrating due to the fact that I experience the ear pain chest pain throat pain all the signs indicative of oral cancer and the pain is unilateral to the side of the lesion/lump and despite all of this they insist and assure me that it is not cancer with great certainty some just by looking at it...and so i say to them what is it?

but then again the acid reflux medication they prescribe does nothing to ease my pain nor does it get rid of the lump which ive had for over five months since i noticed it...the most weird symptom i have is this crack in my neck like a snap of some sort when i cringe i can hear it it's weird......

everytime i visit a specialist and im told that it is not cancer i get a sense of hope and comfort yet once i begin to feel the pain and symptoms the frustration and constant what ifs? resurface causing great stress and uncertainty in my life i just dislike that soo much time has passed and it doesnt seem to get any better and without an accurate diagnosis i cant do much and visiting these specialists is costly at times i feel as if im wasting my time and money searching for an answer they cant find themselves. I just pray it is not cancer.

thank you
Tina
