Hi everyone, thank you for taking the time to read my msg. I’m a 32 year old woman with health anxiety and also two raised lymph nodes in my neck. One has been raised many years, however I’m certain it’s recently gotten larger. The other became raised just recently but has gone down a lot since I first noticed it. I’m experiencing horrendous itching on my legs primarily at night. No other symptoms. 

I’ve been referred for an ultrasound scan, however my GP only mentioned the smaller lymph node on the referral. How likely is it that, if I ask, they will scan the lymph node on the other side of my neck also? I’m going private as I can’t bare the wait. Paying through private health care. 

My other question is that if anybody had similar symptoms to me and it turned out to be nothing, all ok? I’m completely terrified as I have a ten month old baby girl and suffer horribly with anxiety. 

Thank you in advance to anybody who takes the time to respond!
