Hi, 

I really hope your husband is okay and I wish him the very best in getting his results.

I hope you don't me posting here, but i have been experiencing similar issues with my lymph nodes. I have also been having problems with my bowels. I have been having chronic diarrehea with blood present/undigested food.

I understand your husband has had a number of blood tests and stool samples done. I am in the same position, My bloods came back normal and I was told that I wasn't anemic. My first stool sample came back normal, however I was told my GP is going to phone me tomorrow to discuss my latest one. 

I am experiencing exactly the same symptoms of your husband. I am tired all the time, my lymph nodes hurt, particuarly in my chest, collarbone, legs and feet. I keep getting radiating pain which moves between them, and in my wrists. I have gone from being an active 30 year old to not having any energy whatsover. I feel like my health is detoriating too.

I have been back and forth with my GP and to be honest I get the impression they are far too laxed. I am 30 years old and was pretty much told that my chances of getting a colonoscopy were virtually zero. Appreciate the NHS is under pressure with Covid-19 but find it appaling how long people have to wait for basic routine tests, only to be fobbed off with blood tests and urine/stool samples. 

I saw a private oncologist last week for advice and was told that cancer doesn't necessarily show up in blood works. If a person is anemic this may indicate cancer, however it could also be many other things. I am going to discuss my case with my GP tomorrow and I am going to press to get further tests done.

I am also due to have a telephone consultation with the private oncologist on Friday and I am hoping 

he will agree to perform a colonoscopy and CT scan. I will have to pay for these if I can't get anywhere with the NHS, but I am so concerned that I am now willing to go private. Generally, very dissapointed in the level of service I have received from my own GP as he seems very laxed about things. 

I am happy to keep you posted with any update and I sincerely wish your husband all the very best.

Best wishes, 

Adam
