Hello everyone Very Happy

You probably get lots of questions like this but here we go...

Just before Christmas a year and a half ago i noticed a hard small lump at the back of my neck. Naturally i was very worried and poked and prodded it so much that it got very swollen. In January i went to the Drs and he felt around and told me that he couldnt feel anything even though i definately could. So he sent me for a blood test to calm my nerves and it came back clear. So anyway in february i found another lump, its about 2 inches big (though i may be thinking its bigger than it actually it) Its movable in the sense that it moves back an forth, pops in and out etc. Though i can feel it pop out when i move my neck and i can feel it like i have a lump in my neck when i move. Also it feels like a mushroom like it is attached to something. Then about 5 months ago i felt the tiniest lump ever behind my ear. None of these lumps have grown but i'm terrified i have cancer and and way to scared to get them checked out because i have had them for 2 years so will get told that they are too far advanced. Sad Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I just feel like a bit of a hypochondriac but nobody really understands my worried. And its especially not good when a dr fobs you off Crying or Very sad thanks guys

Hi Jadedusk.....Don't worry what anyone thinks. If your worried and have concern then check it out. You know your body best. Get a second opion or third, fourth even. If you are seriously worried, then it will be peace of mind and less stress to have it looked at again.

And even if the worse happens, then you know and can plan the best attack Confused And if not then you can relax and enjoy life even more.

Take Care and Forget what others think.
