I’ve never really been an anxious person, in the last 6 months it’s gone two fold.

I have 5 lumps - one back of neck, two in the sides and one above collar bone.

I have a few night sweats but not drenching, enough to wake me up maybe 3/4 times a week.

Im itchy but always been an itchy person.

and frequent colds - but putting that down to time of year.

my GP doesn’t seem phased and keep trying to push it on my anxiety, that’s fine but I just feel like my body is trying to tell me something.

I'm just not right. They found I had slightly higher T4 and keep linking symptoms to hyperthyroidism- which a lot do cross over. And my bloods last week came back all normal.

I have an ultrasound booked for 5th of Feb - which my GP was like do you want a scan.

I hardly ever go to the Drs, and when I knew something was not right in 2017 I had to go 8 times before they listened, and sent me for a scan which turned out to be two benign ovarian cysts which I had to have an op to have removed.

The GP today said if everything comes back from the scan I just need to put it to bed and get further help for anxiety… which made me laugh because I’ve never mentioned lumps or anything before last week at an appointment and the GP only examined one lump, so went back today to ensure all lumps would be included on the scan.

so I think I just needed to vent.
