Hi All
So today is a new day and as a result a new panic, I have IBD and on medication which will no doubt suppress my immune systems ability but it doesn't stop me from panicking. On Monday night I was bitten by so wing, it bit me three times of the back of my neck and scalp, they have been really itchy but I have tried to not scratch them. Last night I was alone and so was on edge and had a very restless night. This morning when I did wake up I noticed a swollen lymph node on my neck very close to the insect bite. I a, so paranoid I have lymphoma anyway as I'm always short of breath, have red blood spots all over my body and I have had two swollen lymph nodes above my collar bone since having the flu jab in November.
I am so frightened right now and I don't want to have a trip to a and e over a couple of insect bites but I'm convinced the doctors are missing something.
Please can anyone out there help me
