Hard lymphnode left clavicle. So scared

Hi there i found a very hard immovable lump above left collarbone. Dr confirmed its lymphnode. Urgent reverral and bloods and xray. She looked worried.

Im so scared. Online says thie is the worst location and ive had dodgy smears for years. Apparently this can be a sign of malignant cancer in lower body. 18 months ago had severe smear but clear biopsy. Im scared they missed something and i have malignant cancer.

Has anyone else got any stories or advice. I really think im going to die. Cant concentrate.

  • I’ve had a fixed 5cm hard lymph node in my groin for 12 weeks now. My bloods were mostly reassuring however an urgent ultrasound showed something so then was referred to haematology. Had a ct scan and a biopsy and seeing my consultant on Tuesday. I’ve had persistent HPV and abnormal cells for the last five years. Had punch biopsies taken and treatment to remove pre cancerous cells. I’ve also wondered if this could be linked to my enlarged lymph node 

    please be kind to yourself, the waiting and not knowing is so hard but I’ve found keeping myself busy has helped 

  • Yes very stressful. I find it very difficult to understand what the doctors say too. Spose you can only monitor your health, live healthy and be vigilant!
