Hello everyone.
I am new here, I’m a 32 year old woman, normally very fit and healthy. Began sore throat symptoms in July, went to 4 different healthcare professionals in this time, was given antibiotics for suspected tonsillitis and also was told “you’ve burnt your mouth just don’t have anything Citric for a few days” fast forward to September, I finally managed to get a GP appointment, straight away they referred me for urgent 2ww. Went to see consultant who done nasal endoscopy and stated they could see the swollen tonsil and took some samples of the tonsil there and then with scissors. I then in the mean time started having severe chest pain, I went to a&e who stated it might be linked to my tonsil and to allow time. A month later I had my “results” only to be told they couldn’t test the samples fully as it wasn’t strong enough. I’ve now been booked in for removal of tonsil and biopsy but not sure when that is only have pre op 3rd December. I have also been back to A&E since as I know have severe pain in ribs, so I actually had a CT scan today. I am concerned as I know I have high risk HPV as my smear in May showed this. I’m just wondering what everyone else’s wait time was for results and to start treatment?
Hoping for a miracle as the waiting is draining me.
