I had been unwell for a few weeks- tiredness, stomach pains on and off and a rash.
On one occasion pain was severe so had 2 trips to a and e. They only found in abdomen a ‘reactive’ lymph node.
Raised lymphocytes on bloods
Waking up too hot / sweating

Dr said don’t worry we aren’t concerned

Then I got another lump in neck- they scanned and said it just looks like a fatty lump . Bloods same.

I’m now (for the last 2 weeks) experiencing severe itchiness lower legs, feet and hands. It’s really severe

Should I go and ask to be checked completely again as I’m really worried

Itching is a new symptom so of course YANBU to get checked over again.

Just make sure you’ve ruled out new bubble bath or detergent first. I had a freak out in pregnancy, then realised it was bubble bath.

Def not anything like that as I haven’t changed anything I wish I had as at least I’d know but all I keep thinking is somethings wrong 😞 so stressed

They said my bloods ‘could just be due to an allergic reaction’ but I think I’ll make an appt and ask for more tests

You need to, OP. And please don't let them fob you off. Tell them you do not feel good, it has been weeks and you have new symptoms. Good luck and I hope this all turns out okay Flowers

I think you should ask for a lymph node biopsy. It probably is nothing serious but with those symptoms I think they should have done one.

Definitely a second opinion. A vague “ blood results could be due to an allergic reaction” is not good enough.

Also get them to check out your kidneys (can cause itching)
