Hi Chuck, Thanks for the update!

I have been wondering what is going on. I still would believe that cancer at your age is unlikely. I also don't like the wait one month and see idea. If I were you I'd see another doctor (Ear Nose & Throat ENT) for a second opinion without waiting. The price would be worth the peace of mind. It would seem to me that someone should be able to tell you for sure what it is.

Take care
