DS is 3. Two weeks ago I noticed an enlarged lymph node in his neck. It was round and could be moved around.
I took him to GP who wasn't concerned and said to come back in two weeks.
The following week I noticed a few smaller nodes on the same side, and some on the opposite side of his neck and I took him to see a different GP. She ordered a FBC and it showed he was anaemic- she didn't tell me his HG.
His FBC was taken again as was his ferritin and I'm see GP tomorrow.
The larger node seems to have changed shape slightly and has become less round.
He's had two infections recently and has been very snotty. He also has a suspected dairy intolerance.
Can anyone offer any advice on what I should do next? Should I push GP from further investigation? Take him to be examined privately?
