endoscopy is normal , OPG,BARIUM SWALLO : Normal.
i don't think you need to worry about that.
confirmation of cancer require biopsy from cancer ulcer/swelling.
one final thing remaining is CT Scan to search for cancer of head and neck : if its remaining then i think you should get it done to relieve your anxiety.
