Hello,
So over the last couple of weeks I have been doing better, not amazing but better checking less and just doing my normal day to day stuff. Until this morning, I was just sitting down and for reason I checked my neck. I felt some Lymph Nodes and thats perfectly normal for me being rather skinny, I didn't think much of this but then I also felt a different Lymph Nodes this one was different.
I decided to have another check and a rub of it and it has set me off this is unlike any I have it feels like two attached to each other one on top of the other. I know this is a bad sign I think it moves but they are stuck together I don't know what to do, as its a Sunday my Doctors can't help and I don't want to go to the walk in centre as I am not sure if they will be able to help me. I am worried sick now I can't focus I know this is a bad thing when you google cancers it always mentions matted Lymph Nodes and I am now sure that is what these are.
I just need some help to keep me calm until I can get to the Doctors tomorrow as I just can't cope on my own with this.

I decided to go to the walk in centre as I didn't want to sit down doing nothing but worry. I saw a nice nurse who was quite understanding. He felt my neck and asked if I have had a cold recently which I had for the last week. He said he thinks that they are just swollen due to that. I asked about them being attached to each other and he said he thinks they are just swollen and close together not joined. He then said leave them for two weeks and if they are still there see a GP but for now he isn't worried about them at all.
I am still worried but I guess that's HA.
Peace

Am I being silly? I haven't stopped worrying yet even after being told by someone I am sure is qualified to make the assessment on my Lymph Nodes.

Can anyone relate to my problem? I don't really want to seek reassurance but right now a little insight into some one having an issue like mine would really go a long way.
Peace
