Throat pain

I had a sore throat for around 8 weeks in March was seen by Ent thyroid scanned couple of nodules nothing t worry about at the moment they say I've since felt like food is getting stuck in my throat so I had a barium swallow last week chap that did it says he thinks I'll live lol but since the day after my throat is killing me it was dull for a week or so before  but now it's like burning sharp when I swallow I'm so worried about it I feel like I'm clearing my throat all the time I feel like my voice sounds funny and I have to cough to make it sound normal no one has ever pointed it out to me I popped to  doctors to get it checked they've said no sign of infection I shared my worry that it could. Be something bad they are saying that while scanning my thryroid and doing the barium they would of picked up on something bad but online it says that that's not always the case I'm driving my self wild with worry 

  • Hello Worriedbird,

    I see from your post that you are worried about some symptoms you have, but it's encouraging that your doctor didn't find any signs of inection When you are worried that you may have cancer, it can be tempting to look for answers on an online forum, but this can end up increasing anxiety rather than making you feel better.  And try not to look for answers online as they can be inaccurate. The only person that can diagnose you is your doctor.  

    I hope this is helpful
