I am afraid I have oral cancer. I have been having symptoms of sore throat almost three yrs. Blamed it on crappy tonsils this whole time. The started observing the tonsils and throat about 6 mo agao. Saw red patches on back wall of throat. Others (doctors neve seem to notice it) granted the are small How could I know there not suppose to be there and them professionals don't? So I remembered was with someone about three yrs ago and the had HPV or hsv 1 or 2 I wasn't sure. So I googled it and found my throat looked exactly like the HPV oral cancer picture and found out my ex partner had HPV. Last 3 weeks, My left lymph node toward back neck has been swollen. Tonsils and cheeks have a whitish color about them. Throatextremely sore. THe papillae or bumps in the back of my tounge the other night was sore I could n't roll the tongue without extreme tenderness. I did go through bouts of very drymouth. shortness of breath and headaches where my "soft spot" is. Now bumps on tounge traveling base to front on surface of tonue an is tender. I HAVE NO INSURANCE AND CANNOT FIND ANYONE TO DO A BIOPSIE BECAUSE I JUST MOVED HERE, DO NOT QUALIFYFOR MEDICAID, AND NO INCOME. I need to get a coupe biopsies tongue, lymph, and throat probably a tonsillectomy, and I am scardley awaiting a very late late cancer related diagnostic. I do want to better my chances to live though. I love life and my family. My life. So Please anyone in Fl or anywhere that knows anywhere I can go in South FLorida for help since I don't have insurance obtain a diagnosis asap, please please let me know
