Lump on neck

Hi 

just wanted to see if anyone has ever experienced the same thing. I have a medium sized lump at the base of my throat in between my collar bones, where you get that little hole? 
 

it's quite squishy, and I can move it around slightly. Doctor has said he thinks it could be a lipoma but is going to send me for an ultrasound next week. 
but thanks to dr google, it's something quite serious. (Silly I know) 
 

I am freaking out massively, does anyone have any advice?

  • Hello Abak94, 

    I just wanted to welcome you to our forum. I can imagine it must be a very stressful time for you while waiting to have this ultrasound. It's good it's happening next week and you don't have to wait too long. 

    I know it is really hard but try not to worry too much or anticipate what it might be. The best thing to do to avoid thinking too much about this is to keep busy and distracted if you can and avoid looking things up online. I can imagine it is hard for you to do this at the moment but it will help you feel a little less anxious. 

    I hope you will also hear from others here who have been through all this before and that they will be along soon to share their story with you. 

    Keeping everything crossed for you that everything turns out fine. 

    Best wishes,
