Hi guys,

A little background I figured may be helpful before I start my rambling on.

I am 29 and suffer from hidradenitis supportiva. I went to the doctors 2 weeks ago having found a lump under my armpit at christmas. At the time I suspected it was an abcess so I wasn't worried, however, it never came to a head so got it checked out. The doctor has sent a referral for an ultrasound but suggested it might be scar tissue from previous abcesses so still I wasn't worried. Lumps were very normal for me. 

Since then, last week, I have noticed several lymph nodes are swollen. One on the right side of my neck pretty central, one just infront of my left ear and one behind my left ear. I waited to get ill, and not so much as a sniffle.

Today I have found another lump, above my right boob, close to my armpit and one a little closer to my collar bone. I am not sure if there are lymph nodes here and are linked to the rest of them swelling or something else.

I suppose what I am asking is, would you go back to the doctors? Or just wait for the ultrasound on the initial lump. (I haven't received an appointment yet) I don't want to waste anyones time going or worry myself unnecessarily. I hate going to the doctors at the best of times lol.
