Swollen thyroid and lymph nodes

Hi..

My 13yr old daughter noticed a lump in her neck just before xmas. It's been getting bigger and bigger, we had an ultra scan last week and she is having bloods taken tomorrow. The scan came back as it's her thyroid as well as her lymph nodes being swollen the same side. I know I shouldn't but i have been searching online and everything I read keeps coming up with thyroid cancer!  I'm so worried could it C

  • Hi Terri and welcome to the forum.

    I'm sorry about the worries playing on your mind about your daughter's health at the moment. Many of members here on the forum are parents so will totally understand the thoughts and fears running through your mind at the moment and I'm sure you'll receive some words of support and advice from them soon.

    In the meantime try to stop yourself from doing any more research online and stay busy.

    Fingers crossed the blood test results bring good news when they come through.

    Kind regards,
