Lump On the Roof of My Mouth? Posted: 02-06-06 23:49pm
Hello,
have a lump on the roof of my mouth, hard,
visible, does not hurt. It is a 1/4
marble size and shape about midway from my
teeth to my throat. The lump is on my
left side, off the center of the roof of
my mouth. I noticed this last night.
Not knowing what it was, I brushed my
teeth and used mouth wash hoping it would
disappear or reduce by morning. It
still feels the same size and still
doesn't hurt. I am 5'11, 170, and work
out two to three times per week. Have
about the average diet of a 23 year old
who barely makes bills but still have
protein shakes. I drink rarely but
socially and do not smoke. No other
drugs for sure or medications. My
medical history is as follows:
1-2-lucky
3-allergic to milk and eggs
4-11-lucky
12-allergic to all animals, pollen, dust
(everything except medications and
food).
13-21-really lucky
22-dillitation of esophagus, gastritis,
inflammation of stomach. A
gastroenterologist sedated me, then put a
camera down my throat and did and found
the previous. I was put on purple pill
for a month.
22-superventricular tachycardia
arrhythmia, ablation. A cardiologists
believed I had the previous wrong but the
entire test where coming up negative.
Then she offered me a test where they
pinch your pathways and I came up positive
and then the doctors did an ablation.
23-hoping for the best! Not so lucky.
I am heading out for boot camp in a few
days hopefully, in california, thankfully
cause I have no conditions that are life
threatening. I am wondering what this
lump is and who I should consult about it.
I do not have health insurance as of
last month. What to do?
A little about me: my nickname came from
working out and me wanting to be healthy
my whole life, but for me i'm like why, I
try so hard. For 23 I am young and a
lot of my career choices (physical
trainer, military, etc) or goals are
heavily physical. If I could do
everything over again I would be
completely healthy :roll: I wanted the
ablation for this reason mostly, as it was
that or avoid heavy physical activity.
Now I have to go to boot camp and just
before I am supposed to leave, I get a
lump on the roof of my mouth!?
