Hi everyone
My ears are really driving me mad. One ear feels all gunky and blocked on and off, worse in the mornings.
Cancer couldn't cause this could it? I read somewhere online that sinus cancer can cause ear problems so of course I am panic central about it :(
I have had crackling/blocked ears on and off (both ears but more so in my left ear) for months and saw a GP who said it was Eustachian tube dysfunction and would go away. It did go away for a week or so but came back. If it was cancer surely it would be constant?
My glands are swollen too and I am tired/achy and sometimes get blood when I blow my nose (although not for a few days)
I know I am being weak asking for reassurance but I just can't function and I really need some help and support today :(
To add to the anxiety I tested positive for 'rheumatoid factor' in some blood tests and although the result was 'borderline' my GP is referring me to a rheumatologist so really worrying over what is wrong with me. So, so scared I have a seriously illness that is going to stop me having a baby one day :(
Feel so scared :(
