Scared- Lumps on neck and vitamin D deficiency

Offline Ray1118 over 4 years ago

Hey I have two lumps on my neck around the gland area. Went to docs 3 weeks ago as first one appeared suddenly had two sets of full bloods done no infection but second set revealed vitamin D deficiency. Previously had cervical cancer and laser loop therapy to remove cancerous cells. Can't get back to docs until Tuesday last night I discovered another lump on the right side, slightly less prominent but totally freaked out and scared any advice would be welcome tia x

Hello Ray1118,
It's encouraging that nothing serious was found, but if you are concerned about this other lump you should contact your GP again on Tuesday. Try not to worry and feel free to ask them questions if you have any.
Best wishes,

I went to gp today, referred me for an X-ray as she found another lump in my armpit. Bloods taken again to check for glandular fever but I don't think that's what I've got, I looked up the symptoms and they don't seem to fit. X-ray is to check for swollen glands in chest. X ray is Thursday, still hope it's just glandular fever

I'm sorry you're feeling so fearful and anxious about this on your birthday Ray.
This certainly isn't how any of us want you to be on your special day so if you can, do try and put your worries and thoughts to one side. I know that's much easier said than done but I hope these two articles I've found - here and here - will help keep your anxiety at bay.
Do make sure to treat yourself to some yummy birthday cake and we'll have fingers crossed all goes well next week.
Kind regards,
Steph, Cancer Chat Moderator
