I’m a 59 year old female and was admitted to a&e over 2 weeks ago with constant vomiting and severe left sided abdominal pain. I have diverticulitis so assumed was a dreadful flare up. They decided to do 2 dye Pet scans and scarily found the following:
enlarged lymph nodes (lymphadenopathy) in several areas, including:
• Left supraclavicular area (above the collarbone)
• Posterior mediastinum (behind the chest structures)
• Para-oesophageal (near the oesophagus)
• Para-aortic (alongside the aorta)
The vomiting stopped after a day and the pain has pretty much now gone. Have my neck biopsy tomorrow and results on the 6th. I’m trying not to Google, but people keep saying “oh it’s probably just an infection”. The wait is killing me but I am prepared for the worst. Any similar experiences would be greatly received
