Hi, I have been debating posting in this for months now, today I decided I need to. To hear others stories and to know I'm not the only one feeling the way I am. I'm going to do a little back track story so you get a full detail of why I'm posting, I know there isn't going to be an answer for me on here but just someone to say My worry isn't unreasonable.
so 3 years ago my uncle died of neck, throat and mouth cancer. And I don't know much more about my family history except a lot have died of various types of cancers. (I do not have any contact with my biological father.)
anyway in January of this year 2022 I found 2 pea sized lumps in my neck after I had sore muscle pains, I asked my partner to feel and he felt them too and asked me to get them checked well I thought it's only a swollen glande as I had a cold and thought it'll go down, it didn't in march 2022 I went to see my gp who found a lump in my breast Aswell so put me through for a 2ww on both EXCEPT as I found out a couple of months later the ENT referral wasn't put through.
so my breasts were clear again swollen glands and milk ducts from my previous baby.
so I went back to my Gp in may he then said not to worry just yet and put me on antibiotics and neproxens incase it was an infection and swollen glands fast forward a month he called me and said my case was playing on his mind and if my lumps had gone. I explained the hadn't and my new symptoms so he then referred me again a 2ww for ENT.
I got the letter 3 weeks ago my appointment is mid feb 2023 I this will take us to a year I've been waiting to find out if I'm worrying over nothing but the longer I've been waiting the more I'm worrying that somethings terribly wrong. Like a gut feeling.
I have 2 lumps both rock solid one moves between my fingers not a massive amount but it does the other used to but now it's almost like it's glued down to the muscle in my neck.
sorry it's a long one but any info, or anything at all would be great for me right now it almost feels like I've been left in a dark tunnel alone to wait and see if somethings going to jump out at the end.
thank you again
