chronic sore throat

by Angelarose, Sep 23, 2008 05:03PM
Hello,  I've had a sore throat since the end of June (3 mos). Not sore enough to worry about strep as I've experienced that in the past. I also have no fever. My concern is that the soreness is located in one spot on the right side with some irritation in the ear. I was diagnosed with Sarcoidosis about a year and a half ago. Swollen lymph nodes were biopsied through a mediastenoscopy procedure. Lymphoma was ruled out. Is it possible that I am feeling more nodes and maybe my throat is merely inflamed due to Sarcoid? I've tried some home remedies such as teas laced with honey, gargle with salt water, benadryl and alevert to no avail. Is this worth seeing my primary care doctor or are chronic sore throats nothing to be concerned about??  Thank you very much
