It is very hard to assess cat dental conditions on your own. In the absence of very clear symptoms, it is next to impossible. Usually, dental issues are not cancer, so try to remain hopeful that this is a bad tooth.

The only symptoms he had was constant vomiting
He's not been sick since Sunday night
He's not lots weight
He's on blink grain free chicken seems to be ok atm
Is thought of alsorts , kidney cancer thyroid stomach bug
As he not haf bloods yet, could still be something else. Hope not
He had 1 tooth removed about a year ago

This article discusses tooth root abscesses. Halfway down, it mentions signs; however, all of those are very easy to miss if you are not a vet.

But he hasn't chipped a tooth and doesn't have bad breath
Those are just a couple of symptoms and all of the symptoms may be easily missed, or absent entirely. Fiona had to have two teeth extracted several years ago after a regularly scheduled exam in which the vet found a problem which had no obvious symptoms.
Wow! That's not what I was expecting, but I'm glad you got him to the vet and the vet figured out what's wrong.

Fekix is sneezing. He's eating up ok
Gum still very swollen. He only started the antibiotics Tuesday

That is not enough time to give the antibiotics to really kick in, so don't become upset about that.
Hope Felix is doing better. I had a cat who was vomiting. Took her to the vet and her teeth really needed cleaning. She had one tooth that needed to be removed and a tooth that was being reabsorbed and a cleaning.Her vomiting stopped. She has needed many cleanings in her 15 years. She will not allow me to brush her teeth. I have had cats with no teeth issues and some with terrible issues.

Just came out of the vets
They are concerned the swelling hasn't gone down, it's rock hard
Gave him more antibiotics and bupreophine every 6 hours
He needs urgent bloods, but they so busy can't squeeze him in until the 24 may
They need to check his kidneys
If they are OK they will do an xray
Need to know what they are dealing with, if it's abcess or cancer or something else
If it is an abcess he will have surgery
But bloods first then they will call me to decide if it's safe to give him an anasthetic
I'm worried now
Still no definitive answer s
Wont until blood test s
What do you think

Sorry to hear this news. Sorry to say sounds like your stuck with waiting. I hope the pain medicine helps him, but it is very concerning as there many bad things this could be.
