Lymph nodes getting bigger

I already have an urgent referral for a soft tissue scan for swollen lymph nodes around my armpit and left breast. I've noticed they have gotten even bigger. Do I need to notify my gp or just still keep waiting? I've also now had two seizure type episodes and feel really dizzy and nauseous but all my bloods have been fine other than now slightly anemic. 

  • Hello Claitken

    I'm sorry to hear that you're currently waiting on some investigations for swollen lymph nodes. It's understandable that you're feeling anxious. 

    As things have changed since you initially saw your GP then it's certainly a good idea to get in touch and update them. 

    You may also want to call the clinic to ask about any short-notice cancellation appointments that may be available. 

    I hope that you have an appointment soon and that the team is able to give you some reassurance. 

    Best wishes,
