Hi 

I had a biopsy about 10 days ago on a lump on my neck. Since the biopsy the lump seems bigger and hurts 

is this normal ? Has anyone had the same oroblem

 

thanks michelle 

  • Hi Michelle.  I see you have also asked a question on the H&N forum.  That is probably the best place to be.  In the meantime it sounds like you should get some results quite soon from the hospital.  Normal time is around 2 weeks depending on how things are sequenced in the hospital.  I would guess that part of what you are seeing and feeling is the fact that you are more conscious of the lump.  I speak from experience!

    Post and questions on the H&N site - start a new thread if you wish - and the "experts" who have the T-shirts will help you.  We are a friendly and caring bunch who believe no question is too silly to be asked :-)

    In the meantime keep of Google.  All it will do is to frighten you and not show you what clinically is really possible in todays hospitals regarding treatment for H&N cancers.
