Ultrasound of neck

Went to my gp in August about large swollen lymph nodes on the side of my neck for a good few months, weight loss, fatigue and itching. Was referred to hematologist who I finally after waiting over 3 months. Booked me in for an ultrasound of my neck which I went to today. Was in for less than a minute getting scanned...said she was focusing on my thyroid and went nowhere near my large lymphnode...is this normal? I was told everything was fine and I left feeing very confused x

  • I'm sorry you've been left feeling confused from what happened at your ultrasound Emelia.

    Unfortunately no-one here will be able to give you the answers you're seeking but hopefully it won't be long until the ultrasound results come back and you're able to get some answers.

    If you feel the issue with your lymph node hasn't been addressed when your results come through then do be sure to follow up.

    I hope the results bring good news and you're able to get some peace of mind over this soon.

    All the best,
