I had a WLE of my left for grade 2 IBC on 9th Sept of this year. Op went well, recovery great and had my 4 th of 5 RT today, that too is going well. ..
Over the last few weeks I had a strange sensation of fullness in my neck on the left side . ( I was diagnosed with early signs of arthritis possibly cervical spondylosis 3 or 4 years ago however this just doesn't feel the same.Its hard to describe really) .
I mentioned it to my then BCN who has since left but she didn't really seem concerned and I couldnt see or feel anything untoward so I just thought it's me being over anxious , turning every ache, pain etc into another cancer..
Well tonight I think I can feel something on the left of my windpipe. I'm trying not to worry and will contact the GP on Monday ( why does it always happen on the weekend).
I don't have a named BCN and only found out mine had left at my bone density scan. Should I ring them tomorrow for advice , mention it at my next and last Radiotherapy session on Monday ?
Although I don't think they they can do anything maybe they might examine me or is it out of their remit.
My mind is whirling now and it's probably nothing to worry about at all but..
Thanks for letting me ramble on here. I do feel a little better for sharing it.
Xx
Hi there, so sorry to hear you have this worry all over the weekend. I'm not really sure that the weekend BCN team will be able to help but you can always have a chat with them, or give the Macmillan helpline a call to talk it through. I would definitely mention it at your radiotherapy appointment and talk to your GP. Hope you can relax a little until you get some answers x
