Hi I made this account purely for this!
I have had a swollen lymph node on my neck visible from the outside and fatigue for the last 3 years. At first I was silly and ignored it and now I guess I kind of gave up with my gp. Ive been a few times to the same doctor and he just brushes off my symptoms. I'm 23. He hasn't even examined it! Just looked with his eyes and said "oh yes probably a long infection" 2 years later?? He asked if I sweat at night which is a no. he also brushed off the fatigue because "having to look after a toddler is tiring". I live in a small village so there's maybe 3 gps at the surgery. Can I just demand to see a specialist? I still have bad fatigue and the lymph node is still swollen along with one on my chest now.
maybe I'm just freaking myself out and it's "normal" but I'm a single parent to a child (if anything happened where would they go) and both my grandparents and my father currently all have a different type of cancer.
