Hello

i have this exact same thing came up 29th October day after flu jab and it's still there!!!!!

is yours?

Many Thanks

Hi, 

Tagging onto this coversation, almost releived to hear other people going through the same thing. 

I had my covid vaccine (nhs radiographer) but a week or so after I found a small lump above my collarbone, it wss painless and I only found it because I poke around alot (the job makes me worry more than it should). Anyway i spoke to my gp and she called me in and had a feel and did a full blood count, testing inflammatory markers and all sorts. I even asked a consultant I work with to check it. ANYWAY  All came back perfectly normal, which is supposed to be a releif but its still there and getting alot of random bursts of  pain in my neck and collarbone. 

The dreaded C word wont leave my brain, the doctor is worried at all. Is it normal for to have lumps? Has anyone had lumps that havent turned out to be ahnormal. 

I work in cancer care so I know lumps and bumps arent normal... 

Thank you to anyone who reads this.

Hello 

I would put money on it being the vaccine but of course get checked. This thread has helped me a lot!

sending best wishes!

Hi, thought I would pop back to give an update. Had my scan last week and they were scanning for ages before saying they couldn't see anything. I can still feel it at certain times but they said it's obviously a lymph node flared up from the vaccine and whatever it was is showing nothing sinister and I'm discharged. Thank you all that have posted from the start on this thread it's such a help to read and see so many with the same thing. 

Just want to add to this thread as the more I read the more hopeful I feel, although I am still petrified.

I had my 2nd AZ jab about 7 weeks ago - I can honestly say it was done so quickly I can't even remember what side they did it on.

A week later I noticed a large lump (about 10mm I reckon) on the right-hand side of my neck - hard and not moveable. Of course, this happened on a weekend. But I saw the doc on Monday and she wasn't worried and said it would probably go down in a week or two. 6 weeks later it's still there, gone down a little but not much, still hard and non-moveable. Plus after digging around I have found two smaller ones along my collarbone - around 4 -5mm I think. Both moveable. I spoke to the doc and she said just due to my anxiety she would refer me for a non-urgent ultrasound to put my mind at rest. I've now gone private and have an ultrasound on Monday. She also did some blood tests and my white blood cell count was slightly low, so she said it points to a virus/infection of some kind and not to worry. It's worth noting, that I had COVID about 4 weeks before my second vaccine, which I believe can exacerbate any vaccine relate side effects.

I'm just worried because the lump in my neck is hard, and not moveable at all. Anyone else had this?

Hello

I have had a lymph node reaction both times and they always seem to feel bigger than they actually are, the scan backed that up. I was shocked at how big I thought they were against what they really were.

 I also was digging around my neck and found another lump on my throat this time. The GP didn't think it was a lymph node so I thought enough is enough and paid to go private.

The scan was very thorough and the new lump I found was thyroid scar tissue, apparently when we grow and it changes location to be lower down it left a bit and that is what I can feel.

The private scan cost me £299 but it was worth it.

Hi,

i have done an ultra sound and the doc said he noticed something around my thyroid. But he didnt elaborate, can you please share with me what a thyroid scar tissue is ? Anything dangerous ?

this whole vaccine thing is just a nightmare, almost everyone I know developed something worrying.

Hello

For me, he said no further treatment and that was that. He said my thyroid function was perfect and it is nothing to worry about at all.

when did you have your ultrasound? My GP said he thought this bump was around my thyroid but the sonographer said it wasn't now and it was just part of the thyroid.

Just following up from my post earlier in the week. I've just had my scan and doc said everything looked normal and I had nothing to worry about. So I am relieved. No explanation as to why they were there but I'm guessing it is a reaction to COVID jab.

I had my Pfizer jab on Sunday past (15/8/21) and I have the exact same lump! On the same side I got the jab. It's almost spongy to touch and can feel a small lump like a pea. I have been a bit worried about it but someone in work had said this is a side effect from the vaccine. I hope so! 

Hi - I had my 2nd Pfizer vaccine on 13.08.21 and also have the lump on my left collar bone (same side as jab). It seems to be getting bigger and bigger and is really sore. It can also be pushed around. I've consulted the GP who said she will look if it hasn't gone down by next week. Having read all these articles, it would see to be a vaccine side effect, but still worrying (especially if you google other causes). I have reported on the Yellow card system for now. I am hoping the GP will arrange an ultrasound if it  doesn't go down.

Hi Ro88,

Could i please ask how you go about finding the lymphadenopathy reports on the yellow card system? I've managed to create a report myself, but unsure how to search for existing reports.

Thanks so much in advance if you can help :)
