thank you so much for the kind, helpful and supportive responses. I am sorry did not reply sooner but I recently lost my Mother and have been going through a very sad and painful time. Also helping my sister arrange the funeral which took place on Thursday. I have received an appointment with Radiology 15th July for Guided Ultrasound neck biopsy. I have not received any results of my blood tests. I don’t really know what the consultant is looking for and depending on the results I will referred to a relevant specialist. Will continue to keep you posted of any updates. Emchar.

I'm so very sorry for such a huge loss for you and your family. Don't battle through what people expect you to, just retreat until you feel like you can make one tiny step forward and please share how you're feeling with someone. It is very, very painful for a long time. I tried to move on, but it is not easy, even impossible on some days, weeks, hours or even minutes. In my opinion, I have found moving forward is the only realistic option. 🙏. No reply needed unless you want to - it's too daunting a time ♥️

Wish you best for ultrasound guided neck biopsy

The Dr doing that would usually know why.

Sorry your as informed as you like to be I think they just go into auto pilot mode to get everyone seen.

Sorry to hear abt the passing of your mum these are tough times and stressful times. Hope you have plenty of family support during times like these. Especially during the later parts when sorting out her items belonging and her other stuff. As your ultrasound guided for your neck , I suggest you contact your consultant secretary to find out why you were referred for this so that you can get a clearer picture as to why he /she thinks you need it . Trusting all goes well in the meantime for you and that you keep well and not to get too stressed about things that is going about around you too much. Meaning letting others take some load off you as well. Take care and sending hugs xx.
