Lymphoma!?

16 Year Old, Male, White.

Around September Last Year, I had swollen glands and tonsils and earache. I went to the doctors and then this doctor gave me some Phenoxymethlpenicillin. My tonsils and other symptoms went away. 

About 5 months later I went back because my lymph nodes were STILL swollen. My GP tested me for EBV and did a FBC. I came back possible for EBV but my FBC test was re-ordered. I never did the secondary blood test because I was busy

Today my doctor's office message me saying to book a "routine appointment" with my doctor. My nodes are still swollen in my neck.

Should I be worried? Should I go to this appointment? Should I be worried?

  • Hi ThatGuyCy,

    It's good to hear your doctor has been thorough with the tests you've had so far. It's hard to say what to expect at the appointment, but it sounds like there would be no reason not to go - this will answer any questions you may have and hopefully can provide some peace of mind.

    Wishing you all the best,
