Lumps in neck

I found a lump in my neck about 5 years ago which really worried me. The doctor told me not to worry it's probably swollen because I was always getting tonsillitis. I now haven't had tonsillitis in over a year and the lump is this there. About 5 months ago I then found another lump on the other side of my neck. They are round and bigger than a pea size and can slightly move them around. I think about them all the time and get scared to ask the doctor because they just say it's Nothing to worry about even though they've never gone down. Not sure what to do as my anxiety can't cope anymore 

  • Hi, I've had the same issue for quite a while as well !

    Could I ask, if you don't mind, have you have had any other symptoms alongside them and if so what ? As there is a surprising amount of people staying they they have lumps in their necks and are unsure so it seems to be a common problem.

    Hope you're not too stressed !!

  • Hey I wouldn't say I've had symptoms clearly linked to this I don't think. I do feel quite tired all the time but I've felt like that my whole life. I've recently had an ECG done and they found  A heart arrhythmia which is an irregular heartbeat. Not sure if they could be linked, but I think it's genuinely down to my major health anxiety. Do you have any other symptoms along side the lumps?

     

  • Hi

    ive also had this for 3 years. A lump in my neck and fatigue that the drs brushed off and then they told me I have an irregular heartbeat and a fast one ‍♀️. Hope you're getting some answers soon.
