Hi all.
I'd say my case is slightly different than those I've already read on here. In July of this year I ended up with mumps of all things! Lasted around a week and inflamed the left side of my face and nodes of course. Since then however I've had persistent issues with slight aches and pains in that area of my face, before discovering a lump underneath my jaw line and one at the back of my neck.
My 1st GP appointment I was sent away under the pretence that my nodes were still inflamed as a result of the mumps, they still persisted however in size and feeling (they do move but are fairly hard)
The 2nd appointment I had the usual checks blood pressure listened to my chest felt my stomach and then some blood tests which came back clear. This however has still not reassured me and I'm terrified right now, especially as a 23 year old.
I'm waiting on my 3rd gp appointment in around 2 weeks to request an ultrasound.
I'm an active lad who clocked around 37 miles of walking this week. I don't appear to be displaying many symptoms apart from occasional chestiness, I'm sweating at night but not soaked or drenched as I've heard night sweats described just my legs are quite damp. I have however moved into a new house and the new room temp might be an adjustment plus the weather (who knows!)
I would greatly appreciate some reassurance
