I had my two week appointment today.The dr himself was lovely had a felt around and agreed my left side of my jaw and neck was swollen but no hard lumps - which also agreed. He put a tube down the nose which was all clear but one point he seemed hesitant and went hmm ahh no all good and carried on, said all was fine but his hesitation makes me think he saw something but also was like could be fine and was on his merry way. It is agreed for me to have an MRI but i was initially referred to ENT because of my dr wanting an ultrasound which I would have presumed would have been done today. Anyway, I now have to wait for an MRI through the post ️ any idea how long it'll take? Said it could be a muscular thing like teeth grinding but I don't grind my teeth or have any other symptom of teeth grinding. So am now thinking it may be something the muscle or an infection but I have had the swelling for about 7 months + and no other symptoms other than a few sore points in my neck either side of my throat. Just had to get it out of my system as think I'm driving my other half nuts.
I also have never had an MRI so any advice would be great for head and neck mris.
