Hi, 

I have had a hard moveable lump in the back of my neck for about 10 years if not more! When I was younger my mum took me to the doctors and for a scan and they said it was just a cyst. 
 

over the last year it has been getting bigger to the point you can see it at the back of my neck and it's probably about 3/4 of an inch big. 
 

i went back to the doctors and they referred me for a blood test and ultrasound - still waiting for my blood results appointment will be almost 2 months later!! But had my scan today and the scanner seemed concerned but didn't say much. He said I had more lymph nodes in my neck then normal and this one is very big and has calcium on it. He left to get a second opinion and the lady who was in there with me kept asking if I was ok which put more doubt in my mind. When he came back with a colleague to look they were both talking quietly looking at my scan and the 2nd man said I need to be referred to a specialist and the looks on their faces said bad news.

now I've got to wait for a referral back to my gp to be sent to a specialist - not sure what I'm trying to get from posting this on here just wanted to see if anyone has had the same sort of thing and what the outcome was? 
 

i have a daughter who will be two next month and my heart is breaking thinking the worst. I just know the appointment is going to take so long at the moment too! 
 

thanks in advance ️
