Okay so i don't even know where to begin. Worried about my son. He has had a swollen gland up on the back of his head and his neck for about 5 months and other glands have emerged since, the GP said they werent concerned about the glands unless they had been there for 3 months and then they would act. They started referalls etc but slowly.
He has severe night sweats despite all efforts to make his room cool and to put him in just a vest and shorts, when i take his temperature during a night sweat its normal temperature. He is overly emotional and also more tired than normal making every day tasks a chore to him, even getting changed he now says he can't do. He also has done a complete 180 turn on his appetite, going from eating more than an adult in a day to snacking only. So much so that his trousers fall down as his waist is getting so much smaller.
I keep pushing for answers and get told im worrying about things that are normal. He had bloods done 3 weeks ago to see if he had an infection and it was all clear and nothing wrong at all in his blood out of place. But friday he had more done and they have said he now has low red blood count (anaemic)but nothing else so all his other results were fine even the levels of vitamins are fine which she said was strange.
On Thursday he is booked in for Ultrasounds on his head and neck. Im panicking and so worried as the hospital seem to be very relaxed and telling me it is all normal which i hope it is but its been such a long process and if i hadnt kept taking him back i feel they would just let it slide. Am i losing my mind for worrying it could be lymphoma? Is it all normal??
Sorry for the long post im just losing my mind...
Thanks
