Hi everyone.
I'm going out of my mind. My little girl (2.5) has had swollen glands in her neck for about 4 months, maybe longer. We didn't take her to GP at first - we'd only noticed 1 and it was not always visible. It just didn't dawn on us that it could be serious. The GP felt her neck and said several glands were swollen both sides of her neck.
Shes had a FBC and that was normal.
she has some other symptoms - night sweats (her head only - don't know how long they've been happening but suspect a while) and she seems tired throughout the day (rubbing her eyes a lot).
were waiting for hospital to hopefully meet with us but covid-19 might prevent this.
i'm really going out of my mind with worry. Why would a toddler have such persistent swollen glands if not cancer? Does anyone have experience of this please? And also what will consultant likely do when hopefully we meet with them?and how long will it take to do all the tests - assuming that's what they do.
thank you for any thoughts and comments you can give me. I want to be prepared for what might be ahead of us. Being informed will calm me.
