Hi all,
I was just wondering if this is something I need to be concerned about?
I'm awaiting a lymph node excision with tonsillectomy. It was put through as urgent but unfortunately it has been delayed due to them wanting me to have a 24hr ECG first. I was originally under haematology for this. However, it was my neurologist who did an MRI of my brain and neck that picked up on the nodes and referred me to ENT for biopsy.
Just before this happened, my haematologist did some bloods to look for lymphoma cells? i can't remember specifically what it was called but it was very specialised and took a while to come back. This was in January, a week before ENT agreed the biopsy.
My haematologists secretary just called me to ask why I haven't had the biopsy yet, and I explained the above. I asked if my consultant could speak to me regarding the blood results, and she said he wants to wait until after the biopsy. She asked me to call them when I've finally had it to let them know, and then she said it'll probably go to an MDT anyways.
Should I be concerned? Or is this normal procedure? Many thanks for any help xx
