Hey! Super worried Mumma over here, just looking for someone with a little bit of advice or even someone in a similar situation?
I have a 17 month old son who has had 2 large lumps behind his jaw by his ear that have appeared and seem to be getting larger than going away. He sleeps constantly and even the smallest activities seem to exhaust him. He's also lost his appetite 80-90% of the time and even had a sporadic nose bleed the other day with no obvious cause (ie no cold, no knock to the face) He's had blood tests to show a super high LDH level and that he is anaemic. We had an ultrasound yesterday and the doctors said they can only see the enlarged lymph nodes but nothing 'scary', however they want to refer him to the rapid paediatrics team. You hear about things being missed and people going misdiagnosed a lot and I guess I'm just looking to see if anyone has had anything similar? I feel crazy for not believing the doctors but I just have this odd gut feeling. Thanks!xx
