Lump left neck supraclavicular area

This is my first post here and needless to say I'm pretty scared. I'm 40 yrs old and a mum to 3 little delights. I found a lump in my collarbone area on the left and sought my doctors advice. He immediately referred me to ENT who put the camera through my nose and found nothing there. He has booked me in for a CT scan in 2 days time and says I will need a biopsy as he could feel a hard lump. I am on a rollercoaster of emotions as you can imagine. My doc did give me antibiotics which made me feel ill tbh and I feel a lot better after finishing them. Anyone else in this awful situation? I could do with someone to talk to about this as I desperately try to hide it from the little people in the house so as not to scare them just yet! Anxiety levels are through the roof!!!!!

  • Hi,

    I just wanted to reply to your post to let you know that you're not alone and that people are thinking of you as you navigate your way through a stressful time. At least your private appointment will shorten the anxious waiting time. I think waiting is the hardest thing to do! Hopefully you can get some answers soon.

    Thinking of you

  • Thank you Jo for your kind words!  I just came across this chat by chance and it has reassured me so much that I'm not alone and other people are going/have gone through the same thing! It really has helped my peace of mind unlike googling which was making me worse!!!! It's pretty much out of my control until I get a US so going to just try to put it at the back of my mind and enjoy my holiday with my girls! Hopefully a couple of cocktails on the beach will ease the worry too!!! xxx
