Lumps on collarbone Ultrasound on Sunday

I went to the docs on Monday for a lump on my collarbone. It's now doubled in size and a second has appeared. I don't have any viral symptoms other than exhaustion and aches in my neck and head.

I have my ultrasound booked for Sunday but I am struggling to stay of Google and concentrate on work. It's the busiest period at work too.

I am so scared It's cancer as both my dad and grandad had cancer. Grandad had lung cancer and dad had throat cancer. Dad's was found because of a swollen lymphnode.

I just hate waiting

Hello, hope you're doing ok.
I'm in a similar situation to you! Had a lymph node pop up on lower neck (where shoulder meets neck) on Tuesday and it seems to have increased in size every day since then! Feel abit run down today (sore throat and headache) so hoping it just viral! I'm giving mine a week or so before going doctors, but the worry is taking over my days! How big are your nodes?
Wishing you all the best with your ultrasound, let me know how it goes!

The largest is the size of a 1p and hard. The smaller is pea sized and again hard. I'm now getting tightness on one side of my neck and some swelling.

I'm also exhausted all the time.

They said there were actually more lumps but they are only 4mm but close together so felt bigger. Don't need to worry unless they double in size. Still need to wait for the GP report though.
