Just got back from my Doctor, let him in on what's been going on.
I've had a sore throat and a runny nose for 2 weeks (runny nose has gone now) and was concerned, he said it's a virus, sometimes they last weeks!
I asked him to feel my neck and explained how the gland I've felt in my neck since childhood has been the victim of my anxiety recently.
I asked him to feel it and he said it's just a gland you can feel, it's about 1cm in size (though I swear it feels absolutely huge to me)
He said if you want a scan done then you can, but if it will worry you then please don't you don't need one done it would just be for your own peace of mind.
He sent me on my way.
I've had a huge canker sore for 2 days and directly below it is a very sore but small lymph node. I felt the other side and have one the same size. I thought when a gland was sore it got bigger? Mine is just very sore.
Also my muscles have been so painful recently.
My arms, the top of my legs, my back, my hip, my neck....
I keep thinking lymphoma :(
I know I've asked before, but aches all over the body is a common side effect of anxiety right? Plus the aches move around and go away, if it was lymphoma they would stay right?
ERGH :(
