Swollen neck lymph nodes

Hi,

im 29 and have had 2 swollen lymph nodes in my neck for nearly a year now. They are quite big in size (1.5 -2cm)

I saw a specialist and had a ultra sound which they only scanned one and said they were fine from the look of them - they did tell me they was going to do a biopsy but never did and now been discharged.

The past 4 weeks I've been having serve indigestion, stomach discomfort and the doctor has told me she thinks it's gastritis and put me on omeprazole but I've now just found a 3rd lump! 
 

im starting to worry and now think this is more, I have private healthcare but this seems hard work as you still have to go through your GP! Any advice would be great ️

  • Hi Chloe.

    the only advice I would like to give you... is to visit your local A&E if you have serious concerns.

    I know there will be people saying not to put pressure on the service but for reasons beyond our understanding, the GP service can be lacking in certain areas due to the pressure they are under.

    I had symptoms that went ignored by my GP for a couple of months back in 2021... a visit and a long wait in A&E got me some very important valuable answers very quickly.

     

    best of luck
