Not sure what I hope to get from this post really…..
we are in the testing phase but feel like I’m spiralling so looking for some good news stories and reassurance I guess?!
my daughter is 13 and just before Christmas found an odd lump just to the right of her throat bone. Feels odd in shape to me…. She has previously had lymph nodes that come up and down and her dad has the same so we have been pretty calm about it all
I saw the GP who agreed there was something there and did bloods - thyroid check was normal
referred for an ultrasound which came back as ‘differential diagnosis’ and confirmed they can see something but it’s inconclusive. The GP has put her on the urgent 2 week pathways for San MRI which I am both grateful for (as know it is better to know) but has left me absolutely terrified that bad news may be round the corner
really trying to play it all down to my daughter as she panics anyway but I am spiralling and quickly falling down an internet rabbit hole!
can anyone offer words or wisdom? Reassurance? I’m scared for her and am not good in uncertain situations at the best of times!!
