Can someone please help me?

I am in great need of some help. At first it started out as a bad tooth that
had to be removed. Which the dentist did a VERY bad job at doing. Then it turned into something. I have a high WBC, Sed Rate, and a fever that runs
between 99-101 and swollen glands in my neck that makes my throat and ear really hurt. It has been just about a year and a half now, and doctors have no clue what it is. They've done a ton of blood tests, but nothing. And now the swollen glands sometimes get really firm and the right side of my chin now tingles and gets numb. The ENT thought it was an infection, but didn't know where it was. So, I had this test called an Indium Scan that is supposed to find where the infection is, it came back and said there was no infection. But they don't know what it is, so they tried antibiotics, but nothing has helped. And, now, I think it must be getting worse because
of the numbness and firmness of the glands. The pain starts right by my Adam's Apple and goes to the right, all the way to the ear. The ear is really hot and swollen, but they say the Ear is fine. Has anyone had this problem or know of someone that did and what they did about it???? What should I do? I'm afraid that it is cancer -- but wouldn't those blood tests have told
me that it was? Any help -- would be great.

Re: Can someone please help me?

Wow Brownowl I almost could of written your post!! Im not sure what started mine but I've had the swollen glands for 2 years now..I had a crown put in around that time but with no problems.. Mine is also on the right side and goes up to my ear causing it to hurt. The lump doesn't hurt, just the area around it. Seems like its more imflammed at times..But the lump is always there..In Dec it started making my face go numb with tingling. I thought at first I was having a stroke. The numbness and tingling goes all the way up to my lower eye.

I've had 5 Drs look at it.. they all say its a large artery and will cause no problems..I dont agree and will be making another appt this week with a different Dr.

Sorry I couldn't be more help, but thought you would like to know your not alone..Let me know if you find out what it is and I will do the same.
