Brief Answer:
Do a biopsy of the ulcers

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

I can understand your concern and I am sorry for your situation.

I read carefully the lab tests you have attached and they are negative.

If you were my patient I would recommend you to do the following :

A gastroscopy of the stomach to evaluate better the food ways and to take a lavage of the stomach secretions.

A biopsy of the mouth ulcers is indicated too in such conditions.

All the above might help a lot in determining the exact agent of ulcers and after having the results it would be the correct treatment.

Please discuss with your doctor for the above or you can attach me the results of them and i will try to help you again

Regards and feel free to ask me again.

Do you think it might be a tumor?

What can the biopsy say if not cancer ?

Hi again,

Biopsy might say for the exact agent. There are several infections that might cause the ulcers, some granulomatous diseases cause this symptomatic too.
