Swollen lymph nodes and referred to hematology

Hi, new to this! I have had swollen lymph nodes for about 4 months as well as tiredness and feeling generally unwell. I have been getting my bloods done every 4 weeks with the GP and my wbc and neutrophils are consistently low. 
 

I have been treated for thrush and UTI and just constantly feel like I have infection after infection! My GP referred me to hematology last week and got an appointment for next week.. that's very quick isn't it? Should I be concerned? 
 

I am trying to be very logical about the whole thing and control my anxiety about it all but then it just hits me again I have two kids and I think that's all I'm concerned about. 
 

Thanks! 

  • Hi Cfry and welcome to the forum.

    I know it's difficult but try not to read too much in to the speed of your referral. If you can, try to see it as a positive as it means less time thinking about what's to come.

    Hopefully some of our members who have been in similar situations or have experience of been referred to haematology will share their advice and experiences with you soon but in the meantime I hope the tips and advice given just here will help keep your anxiety at bay.

    Wishing you all the best for next week Cfry.

    Kind regards,
