Lump in neck

I found a lump at the bottom of my neck right side above collar bone last week I left it a few days but still there. I haven't been I'll recently but have lost a lot of weight without trying, keep loosing my voice for no reason, extremely tired and lost my appetite. Went to GP on Monday she ruled out thyroid etc and said it's 2cm. Said to have some bloods done and refer we for an ultrasound just to check. She rand me 2 hours later said she's putting an urgent referral for the ultra sound as she's concerned and started asking me question about cancer. I am not absolutely terrified I'm 27 with 2 young kids. Has anyone been threw anything similar what happened ??
