Hi I have swollen supraclavical nodes on my left side, first noticed in dec, went to doctor , bloods showed no infections. has a US showed a node of 11mm with irregular outline and increased vascularity. to be repated in 8 weeks, he wasnt qualified to do a biopsy so none taken. The 8 week wait is messing with my head. meanwhile 1 lump is now 3 with an additional growth that doesnt feel like a node. I am bricking itbut hopefully only another 3 weeks to go .

Hi MrsLilly I can understand why you’re so frustrated and the wait feels like forever. Would you consider going back to the gp, to show them the new lumps and request a biopsy? Seems a long time to have to wait. Keep us posted and sending positive vibes.

My gp rang me this morning - he assumed I had one lump in my neck and said he thinks they’re just fatty lumps (the one in my armpit and in my neck) but I explained I have matching neck lumps either side, identical. Surely they can’t both be fatty lumps? But strange. Anyway i hope he’s right. Seeing him first thing so he can see them, so will see what he says.

Wow that is such a long time to keep you waiting! I hope you're okay, mine is also on the left side, I'm so worried and can't concentrate on life at the minute, feel like my life has been took over by all of this, 3 week wait for me also, hopefully goes quick! 

i went back and saw gp she was lovely, she wanted me to be seen within 2 weeks so sent a referral to ENT their response was that because ive had an US under a different team and they plan to see me again then they wont see me. So I have to wait it out, GP was furious, Ive told them if this proves to be anything sinister the the *** will hit the fan. 

Little update - saw the gp this morning about the swollen nodes above my clavical area. He says he wants them both scanned as well as the lump in my armpit now and hopes the breast screening clinic will do them all next Wednesday. He said they could be fatty lumps but as they’re symmetrical on both sides he doubts it. He’s also booked me in for full bloods this weekend. His demeanour seemed to change today once he saw my neck. He said they’re about 4-5cm in size. Roll on a few weeks and we should all be in a better place. Sending you both positivity and happy vibes. I’m hear if you want or need to chat anytime x  

I'll have my fingers crossed for next Wednesday for you! Is your neck swollen as well, can you see the lumps on your neck without having to feel for them? X 

Thanks so much laurenjess I really appreciate that. Neck isn’t swollen, just have these lymph nodes which are large - you can definitely see them without needing to feel for them. X

good luck , my neck has a swelling which can be easily seen and the nodes are within, was 1 in dec now i think possibly 4 or 5 ...

Mine can't be seen unless you feel for it, I just keep hoping I'll wake up and it'll be gone but that's wishful thinking unfortunately x

O me the same, every morning I check and nope they are still there. 

Fingers crossed for us all, hope you both keep me updated and I'll let you know how I get on at my US x
