Sore throat, pain on the inside of the ear by the eutachion tube, started to get minor head aches, were my symptoms. I thought I had strep which is what the GP treated me for. Did not go away in 2 weeks, so he sent me for CT. Then to ENT that did the biopsy. I hope it is an alergy that is just causing the lumps. Good luck....
