What does loss of fatty hilum mean in my neck lymph nodes
Hi Jenjen,
A very warm welcome to our forum.
Have you had an ultrasound scan? I am not a doctor, but I understand that this may be an indicator of malignancy, although this is never definite and further tests may be needed before reaching a diagnosis. I sincerely hope that this does not turn out to be the case for you.
Please keep in touch and let us know how you get on. We are always here for you.
Kind regards,

Hi yes I have a scan which revealed multiple swollen lymph nodes in my neck with loss of fatty hilum 2cm ....I have bone marrow warning liver an kidney..am so scared. I have been waiting 10 weeks for my biopsy
Hi Jenjen,
Ten weeks is a long time to wait for a biopsy. Is there any reason for this delay? Waiting for a diagnosis is always a worrying time, as our over-active imaginations go into overdrive. Have you had it yet or are you still waiting? Try to steer clear of google at this stage, as it tends to concentrate on the more spectacular cases and leads us to catastrophise, yet never gives us any answers. I can understand that you're scared, but cancer treatment is perfectly "doable". I have had 2 bouts of breast cancer with liver and kidney problems, but I am still here 14 years on from diagnosis and I still lead a busy and fulfilling life, so don't give up hope.
Kind regards,

I think they forgot about me ...so I went private....I have got my biopsy on Tuesday it's been a long time coming. it's all started with scar tissue growing on my uterus in 2016 the hospital didn't ll me until 2021.all my bloods r abnormal. I am still waiting for another scan to see if it's growing...it was 5" back then. I have now got my local MP involved with the west Yorkshire integrated ca re board investigating the hospital. They have lied an left me with no treatment what so ever can I send my results on this ? Xxx.
Hi Jenjen,
It sounds as if you have had a rough time. Yes, you can post your results here, provided that you don't name the hospital. I am glad to see that you have your biopsy appointment on Tuesday. I shall be thinking of you on Tuesday. When you have your biopsy, don't forget to ask when your results will be back. I have accepted your friend request.
Kind regards,
