3cm lump behind ear on hairline, one in hair too.

Hi, I thought I just passed to have some advice.

I thought I just posted some advice.

My brother recently had some problems with his glands and it give me a kick up the butt to go to the doctors as I've had a large hard immovable lump in my hairline behind the bottom of my ear for over four weeks now. It feels smaller on the surface but you can pinch it from either side and it's the size of a large grape (makes me feel sick feeling it but doesn't hurt) 

I have an appointment at ENT in two days and have since noticed another hard immovable lump further up into my hair and a lymph node swollen on the other side of my neck albeit small. 

wondering if anyone has had any similar experiences. I haven't had many other symptoms other than slightly nauseous and headaches on a late afternoon/evening. Tiredness wise I have three young children so you can only imagine. 

anyway im hoping that all is fine but wondering if anyone has had a lump in a similar place.

Thanks in advance
