Hard large movable lymph nodes referral

xray31
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

    Tomorrow I have my ultrasound, I have received the letter stating that it is an ultrasound guided biopsy. Which has made me a bit nervous. I have also received the call today for my follow up appoin ent on the 18th August, I thought they waited for results etc before making a follow up appt? I'm still hoping for the best as that's all I can do.
