OMG - I am overwhelmed by all your posts and good wishes.
Been to see my doc, and have to go for a scan on my neck, where the lump is - obviously - this will hopefully be within the next 10 days or so, and then he can see what is going on in there. He said I was not to worry and that it might, just might, not be connected to a lymph node but until the results of the scan were in that it was difficult to say at this stage.
On a more positive note, DD managed VERY well without me today - baby slept well through the night and is settling a bit better now. Have the weekend off, and will be back on granny duties on Monday.
It just gets more and more complicated. I have had mum's car for the past week as hubby's failed his MOT, and he's been taking mine to work. Mum has an eye infection in an eye she had a cateract operation on last year, dad has to go into hospital on Monday to have an op on his arm as he has had nerve probs, hubby's car is in for post MOT work that day, I have mums car, hubby has my car at the moment, mum needs her car to take dad to hospital, hubby has appointment at dentist early Monday. So.......I am returning mum's car on Sunday night so she can drive (hopefully) dad to hospital, and pick him up later in the day, then early Monday morning I take hubby's car to garage, he follows me, I go with him to dentist and then he drops me off at DDs. Confused.........well, I am not surprised! Who has time to think about my own probs!!! I also have to catch up on my own housework, ironing, shopping etc lol
Once again, thank you all for your kind thoughts and I will keep you posted. In the meantime, I will be on the boards reading as usual, to help me keep my mind off things, and posting occasionally.
I love you all x x x
