Well, the bleeding has stopped. After half an hour, I spat again and see no blood. I will keep checking throughout the day.

I think I should just get the other nodes biopsied. Maybe the one they removed was ok but the others have cancer. I dunno. Shrug. One thing the ENT said was usually, with oropharyngeal cancers, there's usually just one or two big lymph nodes. But, I have all of these small little ones. He thought it was lymphoma. Could still be. I'll just wait and see. I figure, if it's really cancer, the lymph nodes would have grown MUCH bigger than they are now after 2-3 years. But, they're all still about 1 cm or smaller.


40 y.o., undiagnosed, spitting up blood past 4-5 months at random intervals, several enlarged lymph nodes under chin and neck, biopsy of one showed benign viral lymphadenopathy. Still being monitored by ENT.
