Help something is going on with my throat

[mnt0121]

Exactly one month ago I started having this weird sensation on the very back of my tongue.  It almost felt like there was a hair stuck in the back of my mouth on my tongue.  As days went on I tried several things such as scrapping my tongue to remove the hair.  But the feeling never went away.  Eventually I began to feel discomfort in my mouth and throat.  Now for several wks. I will wake up feel nothing and by noon I begin to feel the sensation that something is in the back of my mouth and by night the left side of my throat is sore almost like a burning feeling and the back left side of my tongue feels as though I have biten it.  The sensation of hair on my tongue is on both sides.  I took a tongue depresser tonight and did not notice anything on my tongue but I did notice a cluster of red/light almost blister like bumps on the back of my throat.  I do not have a cough or fever, hoarness or difficulty swallowing with these symptoms.  And I do not believe its contagious because neither my childeren or husband has experienced these symptoms.  The left side of my head sometime feels numbs but I associate this with my tongue pain which causes the left side of my head to ache including my ear.  I am a social drinker although I have drank in awhile and I smoke on occassion.  Not very often and havent in a while.  Since this has been going on for one month I'm very scared can anyone help.

ok, so your description fits my problem perfectly, did you ever figure out what it was?
