Hello everyone 

I found a lump in the upper back/middle of my neck about two months ago and I am absolutely petrified about it. It doesn’t seem to move and feels quite hard. I went to the doctor who didn’t seem massively interested or worried but said I should have an ultrasound and blood tests done.

Has anyone had anything similar .org any advice?  Thanks in advance x

she didn’t check my throat or ears or anything which made me worry that she thought it wasn’t connected so no need to check, even though I had said I felt some pressure in right ear.

i woke up last night with a sore right tonsil, seemed to have a white patch on it and or looked slightly bigger at the back than my left tonsil. Maybe unrelated but have had one severely itchy patch on right foot that comes and goes for years.

im basically driving myself crazy worried I will die. My aunty died of lung cancer a few years ago and I can’t face anything like it again and I don’t want to put my family through it. I know this probably sounds insane but I dreamt of her for the first time since she died and in my dream

she was crying so I feel like this means she was  crying as she knows the hell i am about to go through.

i don’t have any other symptoms apart from maybe some kindness of pressure in ear and back right of throat feels a bit sore and itchy sometimes but not constantly. It’s teally scaring me to the point that I feel it’s unbearable. I am thinking the worst as I can’t explain why I would have a lump for  this long if not the worst. I feel like the description of the lump and location means it inevitably has to be bad. I really wish I would wake up and it wouldn’t Be there I am really upset and terrified. I know I just have to wait for the ultrasound but I don’t feel like I am able to handle going through this and feel very scared and alone.
