I have had reoccurring bleeding in my mouth. I haven't been able to identify where it was coming from until last night. It is a lesion on my tongue. I also have made a correlation of when the was happening a few months ago My neck glands are enlarged and my face is broke out like in puberty. Do these symptoms sound familiar to any of you? I have an appointment with an ENT on Tuesday thinking it was coming from my throat or nose. Hopefully he will be able to answer some questions. It happens intermittently so hopefully he will get to see it happening. Thank you for any insight that someone could share with me. Look forward to hearing from you. KG

kmcditti, I suggest writing down all the symptoms you've been having to share with the doctor also take notes when at the office. Many people do this me included. It's difficult enough to be scared and sick and only adds to the possibility of miscommunication and forgetfulness.

Our focus isn't diagnosis but Mayo Clinic has a superb website that may be helpful. Since we are a cancer site I've linked you to mayo's mouth cancer page though you can search on your own. http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/mouth-cancer/DS01089/DSECTION=symptoms

All the best,
