I would like advice, as the right side of my face feels numb/full and neck feel full and my neck feels like there's so much pressure in it. I'm currently waiting for a biopsy but the symptoms are making me feel awful. I have what feels like shortness of breath but also like low blood pressure all the time. Do I need to see my doctor again or can I wait?

  • Hello and thanks for your post,

    I am sorry to hear about your situation.

    If the symptoms have changed or got worse since you have seen the doctor I would get in touch and let them know. It is difficult without being involved in your care to be able to advise you but if these are new symptoms and you can't get hold of your GP or your haematologist there is always the option of ringing NHS 111 for advice.

    I do hope that you know more soon.

    It is important that if these are new symptoms that you do get in touch with a doctor as soon as possible.

    I hope this helps.

    Best wishes,

    Catherine
