Found a lump above my thyroid gland

Hi guys this is very new and unfimliar for me I have health anxiety so I'm really freaking the heck out. I had lymph nodes swelling for about 2-3 weeks doctors was not sure what was causing the swelling so they sent for my bloods to be taken and all was normal apart from the fact I had an infection somewhere they didn't know where. Then I found a lump above my thyroid gland and scared the heck out of me went back to the doctors they're ordering a scan an ultrasound I think and I'm really really scared I'm not sure what to do I'm that anxious I don't even want to go out I have shortness of breath and I'm more tired then usual other then that I'm fine.

Im going to see if I can get an appointment tomorrow for my doctor to have another feel as of now it's a lump on the front of my neck quite hard but movable, can be tender hurts with exercise also inflames with exercise. Don't have any other symptoms other then that. When im just having a normal day I can barley notice it, other then the tight feeling in neck. Had blood work results back white blood cells were higher .2 over then what it should be however red blood cell count normal. Signs of infection in body but don't know where. Lymph nodes have gone down in neck however the lump still persists. Help please can someone advise me. A little bit of ear ache.
