Lymph nodes in son's chest xray!!

6 replies

user1483566920 · 19/04/2018 10:20

Really worried about 9 year old son. He is a known asthmatic, had various hospital admissions anyway to cut a long story short he had a chest xray which showed lymph nodes in his chest area after bloods and another xray (and being told it MIGHT be lymphoma) he was sent home and to come back month's later. This was January last year. He has antibiotic which made the swelling in in the chest go down, 3 weeks ago had another xray to show it had grown in size again. They don't know what it is and don't seem in any hurry to find out what it is!! Has anyone else had this and what can i do?!!

Hi OP I don’t have much advice but you’ve accidentally posted in a random topic, and I think you’ll get more useful replies if you report it and ask MNHQ to move it to Chat or children’s health. This must be so worrying for you - I hope others have suggestions for you Flowers.

I've asked mnhq to move this thread, so you get more helpful answers Flowers

Hi, we're moving this thread over to our Children's Health topic so the OP can get some more advice.

Hope your son is okay, OP Flowers

I'm so sorry and don't have any experience of this I'm afraid. Would it be possible for you to go private to try and speed this up with a specialist? I can't imagine how worried you must be. I hope your son feels better soon.

Bumping for you OP. Hope you get some other replies soon.

Hi, I know this was years ago but I’m going through similar with my son. Did you ever get an answer?
