My husband has had a lump on either side of his neck for several months. He previously had glandular fever 5 years ago so GP thought likely to be that. Blood tests came back normal so he had an ultrasound with biopsy. Results came after 10 days and GP said the lumps with full of of white blood cells and is referring him to haematology as thinks it's his body fighting an infection. I'm completely freaking out assuming it's cancer (guilty of googling). He has been tired recently but otherwise fit and well till few days ago when he developed a cough but our daughter has also had a cough/cold. Would the biopsy have shown lymphoma and would the GP have said it he thought that what it is? Does the fact it took 10 days for results mean anything? Is there anything else that might cause the mass of white blood cells?
