Not really sure where to start. I carry a BRCA1 gene for which I have had a double mastectomy and ovary and tube removal. This was all some time ago now. I have recently had some digestive issues and been diagnosed with achalasia and most recently has my gall bladder romoved about 8 months ago. Just before xmas I noticed a swollen Lumph node on left side of my neck. Bloods were taken and no sign of infection detected. I went for an ultra sound before xmas where 3 nodes were detected one measuring 1.1 cm with irregular outline and increased vascularity. No biopsy was carried out. the suggestion was to wait a further 8 weeks and repeat the ultrasound. now this weekend left side of neck has swollen quite a lot enough to fill palm of hand, and the node has grown and i can feel a number of other lumps within the area.
