Hi all,
back at the beginning of April this year I had a sore throat, I looked and saw I had a few ulcers/blisters in the back of my throat, I have never had these before, and they weren't there previous to that, I had just come off Omeprazole which I had been taking for acid reflux, and had been on them for 9 weeks.I had also just come off Yasmin contraceptive pill that i had been taking for around 8 years.
I went to see my GP and he said it was an infection of some kind, either viral or bacterial, and I didnt need any antibiotics and just to try corsodyl mouthwash, I did as he asked and over time I noticed the blisters/ulcers were still there, so went back a few weeks ago, I was given some hydro cortisone buccal tablets she said if they didn't work she would refer me to a ENT, she didnt seem to know what they were.
So I tried the five day course and I noticed that some of the ulcers have shrunk a lot in size to tiny, but I have a new one that has popped up in another place in my throat, can anyone shed any light? My appointment with the ENT isnt until September, I feel absolutely fine in myself and the ulcers/blisters don't bother me that much apart from sometimes making me wake up with a dry sore throat on a morning.
I am a 37 year old female. I am beginning to worry about the dreaded Cancer word. Can anyone shed any light?
