Problems with neck, jugular,ear and throat area
Hi,
I have some problems with throat area since spring this year but now it is getting worse. I have the feeling that someone is choking me, especially in the mornings till noon. Also a pressure in my left ear, I feel that I have a swollen area under my left jaw and ear. Have seen an ORL dr but he said that there is nothing wrong with my throat and inside my neck tonsils and voice box are ok. I was diagnosed with breast cancer in September 2017. Had radical mastectomy, chemo therapy, radio therapy and Hormonal therapy with Tamoxifen. The problem is that I cannot stand the side effects so I stopped taking it since January. My type of cancer is estrogen and progesterone positive, HER 2 triple positive. Had some analysis done these days and the level of total calcium is more than maximum (10.3 mg/dl reference interval is between 8.4-10.2 mg/dl). Also I have a low value of the mean platelet volume (under the minimum value) and the same for leukocytes. Is there anyone who confronted with this problem? Can be the fact that my breast cancer is starting to spread to the bones? All markers are in limits but AFP witch is over the maximum limit.
Thank you in advance and wishing you all the best
