If you are Asian, lived in Asian countries for a while, you have to beware if you have ear blockage, a lump on your neck, you have to hurry up to have it check out and pay attention to your body very closely.
Not very common in United State, that's why is harder for Western Doctors to detect it.
I had a small lump beginning in 2004, thoughts it was thyroids, had it checked but it was negative. At the same time the lump was dormant for awhile.
2007, due to ear infection, had a check up with a Otolaryngology, had another biopsy, but came out unknown.
2009, again had right ear problem, seen at least 3 to 4 doctors but still have not have it clear, tough it out for a month or two. Very uncomfortable not be able to hear very well. Finally, went to see a new Doctor but still in the same Doctors Group at 282 California. He was the one who told me I have to get a MRI and from that he sent me to get a Fine Needle Point Aspirate.
The rest is History..
I got Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma.
