    Hi Kay..

    It's always scary getting symptoms and not knowing what it could be .. but please don't goggle , they always give worse case sinarios... and then it all feels overwhelming...

    Get an appointment with your G P... tell them all those things that your going through .. and don't panic if they send you for more tests... that's normal to find out what's going on ... sorry we can't help you more as wer not medically qualified... just people with cancer or caring for someone with cancer... 

    But fingers crossed all will be o.k ..   Chrissie x

    Try not to worry GP always send you more tests because they are qualified drs but not in any specific field. So go to your GP make an appointment don't continue to suffer and worry because it could turn out to be something really simple.

     

    Hope all goes well for you

    Fingers crossed.

    Take care Lesley

    I have swollen lymph nodes in my neck, random fevers, sweats and chills at night. I am waiting to see a haematologist. Have you had your bloods checked? I hope you arent waiting long for your scan x
