Hi Everyone
Sorry to post again so soon after my previous one. I'm worrying so badly at the moment. I now have a sore ear (since Monday). I have a long standing fear of throat cancer and am getting myself worked up into a state of compelete panic :weep: . Some time ago I made the mistake of googling throat cancer and guess what? one of the symptoms is ear ache!! I also saw a thread on here that someone they knew had throat cancer and the only symptom they had was a painful ear!!! I'm a 52yr old female and smoked up until 18 months ago (wasn't a heavy smoker). I'm so pleased with myself for giving up but now worry that I will be punished for all the years I did smoke :weep: . Has anyone else had a painful ear that lasts a few days? Mine was really itchy before it got painful.
All this worry is getting me down, please could I have lots of reassurance x
