Ok so, A little bit of background first.
I'm a 21 year old male smoker. Been smoking for around 6/7 years (bad I know, however the first few years were on and off, not everyday). I developed a social-type anxiety at 16. I would never leave my house over the fear of something terrible happening. I would worry about family members and friends that were outside etc... I was given a half beta blocker that worked for the panicky-heart attack like symptoms but not the anxiety itself, so I turned to recreational drugs, cannabis to be precise. This helped in the short term. Fast forward 2-3 years I developed a standard chest infection (I rarely ever caught illnesses or was sick) this sparked intense health anxiety. I put down to cannabis and didn't ever pick it up again. My mind was constantly on my chest and lungs. I coughed that much I damaged my cartilage surrounding my ribcage and developed Costochondritis. With a few visits to the doctors I soon got over that. Now that's over and done with. My present problems are with my oral and throat health. I use an inhaler which gave me a rare form of oral thrush, because it didn't show the usual symptoms of thrush doctors and dentists kept saying it was just a little infection/inflammation. I was very persistent so after a month of no change they fast tracked me through a cancer specialist, he swabbed me and diagnosed thrush. At the same time that all started I began to feel a pulling sensation in my throat and intense heartburn, which I still have today (and have for the past 3 months). My tonsils keep inflaming and going down after a few days. My soft palate really stings every morning but tends to subside as the day goes by, my nose is constantly blocked, I have thyroid and Adams Apple pain, my eyes are very watery, I get headaches at the back of my head in the evenings after work and small bump on the roof of my mouth that I can't see but can feel with my tongue doctors say my mouth is normal but I never notices this bump previously, however I never used to rub my tongue around my mouth before all this either so it may have been there, I don't know. After all this time they only just referred me to ENT which they "forgot to send off" the first time so I had to go back in and request another referral. This has heightened my anxiety A LOT, especially with it being such a long time. I just had bloods done last week to which they said some came back 'normal' and one came back 'satisfactory' 🤔. The doctor rang me and told me that means there is nothing sinister such as the "C" word or leukaemia or anything else nasty and to wait for ENT but I feel like I'm getting worse everyday. I feel like the "satisfactory" blood test may get worse and they only caught whatever made it satisfactory very early if that makes sense? Am I just being super anxious? Or am I right to worry? The "C" word is my biggest fear. I can't even say the word. I have quite good medical knowledge, although I don't practice or study in medical field, I'm aware that head and neck "C's" are very aggressive and hard to treat. I go to different doctors atleast twice a week. From my GP to walk in centres to hospitals (not A&E, just primary care/out of hours doctors). Telephone consultations to face to face. I'm worried they will get annoyed with me and refuse care. Please help. I just want advice. What would you do if this was you? My medications are Propranolol, omeprozole, and a steroid nasal spray, plus the odd pain killer here and there to help with the tonsil problems when they appear. Sorry for the really long post, I just want to get it out there and hear opinions. Thank you.

I forgot to mention I have a cough and wheezing from throat. When I cough it weirdly makes my torso area itch but under my skin if that makes sense.
