By reading other members posts, you will learn what symptoms they have gone thru. Many patients have no symptoms at all, no pain, nothing. Other have had an ear ache, sore throat or pain when swallowing. Everyone is different and will have a slightly different experience. You are very fortunate to not have cancer! You are also very young with your whole life in front of you. My advice is to avoid dwelling on "what if", go out and celebrate your good health, move on to live a full life.
I must focus my attention on other members who are sick. Some of them are fighting in life or death situations. Their posts are why this forum is here, to help sick people. Feel free to browse and read all you want but remember this site has many patients who are very ill and they need help.
