Big breath and wait for your lab results - I suspect they will be ok or explain why your nodes are swollen.

Kindly,
Kitt

Great advice given above...

...just wanted to add my support. I know that you have not been feeling well for awhile.  When we are not feeling well, it can lead to our anxiety rising.

Try not to let the worries take you on a wild ride.

Things are going to be allright. Good job on seeing your doctor and getting the help and answers that you need to get better.

Let us know how you are doing soon.

Throat infection...dragging on for weeks, swollen glands...

...most likely checking WBC's and ruling out mono?

Let us know when you find out. Try not to worry until you hear anything, as it is most likely something that you will be able to get over soon with the right dx and treatment.:)

My bloods came back normal

I have had a pointy lymph node for years since college I guess I first noticed it, thought it was form smoking but still there after I quit last year. Hasn't killed me in 12 years and probably it won't.

Glad your tests came back normal, time for a deep sigh of relief! Hope you are feeling better soon!

I seem to think i have a muscle tension migraine
Posted 12/19/2013 1:27 PM (GMT 0)
Sometimes I feel like I have a tension headache or stuffy brain, usually after a long day of staring at a screen or stress at work. Have you determined what's causing your anxiety lately?

I worrying thinkin i have a brain tumor cos i have had it 9 weeks put my back and neck started aching first
Posted 12/19/2013 2:10 PM (GMT 0)
Sammy I'm so terribly sorry for your loss....words can do nothing and I can't even imagine... so sorry...

With all my heart and soul I want you to know anxiety can be overcome. I know nothing about recovery from a loss like yours, but I pray for healing, peace, love, acceptance for you in your life.

CBT and therapy saved me. SC and Kitt have fantastic resources on CBT and good advice on all sorts of ways to progress on your journey.

Hope you are feeling better soon.

I think you identified why you are feeling so anxious and sad.............my deepest sympathy at the untimely death of your daughter. I am a Mother who lost a son and when I get anxious and depressed I always remember him and it sends me hurtling into a dark place.

Hoping you have a therapist or grief counselor to help you through this sad time.

You have a right to headaches and a whole lot of heartache. If you want to email me, my addy is in my profile.

Lymph nodes may take a long time to return to normal size. Believe that you will be OK and there is no tumor. Trust your Drs. to care for you and if you feel you need a second opinion, do get one.

Blessings,
Kitt

I am concerned with this head ache
Posted 12/19/2013 6:25 PM (GMT 0)
I have chronic headaches as well.

They can be from neck tension...which stems from anxiety, stress, grief...all of the things that you have been experiencing.

Here is link to some excellent stress relief exercises. The progressive muscle relaxation (focusing on neck/shoulders and upper body) should really help. http://www.stress-relief-exercises.com/

Doing these things along with the other suggestions from Joshua and Kitt should help you to find some relief.

Keeping you in thought....and hoping that you will keep talking with us!

That is a pretty easy fix...you can up your iron nutritionally, or he/she may want you on a supplimental iron pill...either way, you will be fine.;)

Hi sammyE1988,

I hope that you feel better soon. I'm thinking of you, and hope that these symptoms lesser. I think that they will over time hopefully.

I do what I can to talk to lots of different people, that helps me gain coping skills and helps lessen anxious feeling that I have.

My best wishes. HB
