Any advice on enlarged lymph nodes please?

I have an enlarged LN in my groin, measured about 6mm. I went for ultrasound which confirmed was abnormal but didn't want to biopsy that day but said they will if still there in another 8 weeks. (Been there 12 weeks already) ultrasound showed LNs under armpit but benign? 

 

CT scan clear except a moderately enlarged liver? No idea why. 
 

other symptoms fatigue, night sweats. Should I push further for this biopsy as haven't heard anything  ? I feel worried x 

  • Hello Katieh1985

    I'm sorry to hear from this and your previous posts that you're dealing with some ongoing health concerns. It sounds as if all the tests you've had to date haven't given any immediate cause for concern which is reassuring. It's good to know that the team has said they will monitor these raised nodes and if they don't settle they will biopsy them for further investigations. 

    We know that waiting for tests and results can be a difficult time and many people feel particularly anxious during this period of uncertainty. This anxiety can exacerbate symptoms and leave you feeling even more worried and unwell. There's some useful information available on the NHS website with tips and advice for managing health anxiety. 

    If you think it might help to talk to one of our nurses about your concerns then you're welcome to call them on 0808 800 4040, Monday to Friday 9 am to 5 pm. 

    Hopefully, when you have the biopsy the results will bring some answers and reassurance for you. 

    Best wishes,
