Hi, I’ve been in tears all morning. I’ve had a small white jelly type patch just inside my nose since early last year. It started (I think) when I was using nasal drops for an ear pressure issue that I still have. I stopped using the drops as I was worried it was damaging my nose and expected it to go away.
I finally went to the doctors a couple of weeks ago hoping he could diagnose it as polyps or something else that’s not sinister but he sent me away with some antibiotics and cream for ten days and said to come back after to see the ENT specialist doctor. I said to him that I thought nose cancer was quite rare hoping for reassurance but he said that lumps and bumps grow everywhere in the body but most of the time they aren’t cancer so i felt it was something that had crossed his mind but he said if I’ve had it for a year he would expect it to have got worse.
ive come to the end of the antibiotics and the cream and it doesn’t seem like it’s improved so I’m convinced it’s some sort of nasal cancer or even more likely skin cancer as I know I’ll get it at some point from being stupid in the sun in my teens.
it’s my youngest daughter’s birthday next weekend and I don’t feel as though I can enjoy it as I’m so worried I’m dying.
Please can anyone give me some advice. I’m so scared to go back the doctors and get referred.
