Hard large movable lymph nodes referral

Offline

Hi, so I've had 4 large hard lymph nodes for about 3 months now. I've got 1 under each side of my jaw and 1 on each of my neck. I haven't been ill in months, so today I visited the GP. The GP felt them and said they are alot bigger than the 1cm "normal" so he has referred me to see an ENT under the 2 week wait. I am very worried, but glad I will possibly get an answer, just praying for a good one.

Has anyone had similar? And what can I expect at the next appointment?

I thought I would just post here to keep updated and so that people in a similar situation could read.

Thanks all

    I have my ENT appointment tomorrow, there hasn't really been a moment where I haven't been worried between referral and now. However I am just hoping to get some more information and hopefully good news etc. 

    I did come across my referral document on my nhs app and saw that the DR who referred did put that it was more for peace of mind than concern as no "red flag" symptoms so hoping that is good.
