Lymphoma fears

Hello,

I'm just wondering if anyone who has experience of lymphoma could tell me what your lump felt like?

I've had some vague symptoms for months but nothing terrible. Recently several lumps have appeared above my collarbone (I have a GP appointment on Friday) and I'm wondering whether my concerns about lymphoma are justified and I should expect a scan etc or if they'll tell me to wait and see.

No recent infections to explain swollen lymph nodes.

They're about the size of a grape but soft and move a little which I think is a reassuring sign.

Thanks 😊

If the lumps move then it likely is not lymphoma.
If they are stuck in one place and can't be moved then it could be lymphoma.

Swollen glands....feel like little peas that can be pushed around

Lymphoma is like a pea that is superglued....can not move.

Thanks, that's reassuring!
