hi all
This site is amazing. Gives so many people support, even those who may just be worrying about a biopsy, like myself.
i had a biopsy of an ulcer on floor of mouth, just under tongue, on Friday. i have a four year old boy and so scared to get bad results.
Maxillofacial surgeon said the ulcer looks non suspicious, which is great, but because ive been feeling collarbone pain, ear lymph discomfort and had a cough been really nervous about it all.
I have terrible health anxiety anyway, and have had poor health with lots of infections recently, maybe related to my thyroid going back under. I am scared stiff.
Now i keep worrying about my tonsils, a totally unrelated area to the ulcer, but two years ago saw a gp to check why one is barely visible and the other big and lumpy. She said totally normal so i never checked further.
The taste bud things at back of my tongue are annoying me as rather raised. And my tingue feels a bit achy, think its related to those things. Asked surgeon why i have been lisping recently and he said proabbly the ulcer and not to worry.
Wish i could just deal with this. Am a nervous wreck. Im always thinking with doctors what if they missed this, and missed that with diagnosis of my health, guess ive just seen too much illness around me. Have a sore armpit lymph which i had the other year for months and doctor just shrugged and said infection! Since xmas nothing but infection and theyve nothing to mention. Aaaah
How to be brave and just deal with life!!
