Hello I have had (what I assume to be) a swollen lymph node in my neck/throat for years now. I have been to the ENT and they didn t seem too concerned and told me it could be a lymph node or a cyst. Never a definite answer. It feels hard but moveable. and worries me. I always feel like crap even though my blood work is always fine. I have a constant heartbeat in my left ear and I think the lump in my throat is what s causing it. If I push on the lump the pulse in my ear goes away. I want to feel better what should I do? I feel like I have a terminal illness. I m also worried about skin cancer. if I had skin cancer would it cause just one lymphnode to swell and slowly kill me? I dont have health insurance at the moment But I m scared.
