Lymphoma - tonsils
by sofia1168, Oct 30, 2009 02:25AM
My 3 year old son has always had larger then normal tonsils. He has been seen by doctors who have shown little or no concern about the enlarged tonsils. I took him to his paedritician 2 days ago and she took a look at his tonsils and showed concern at their size. He is not sick, has not had any antibiotics for the last 8 months, is eating fine and his weight seems to be steadily increasing. She said that there may be 0.5% - 1% chance of lymphoma. He suffers from allergies and I just try to keep his nose clean so that the allergens don't fester there and cause infection in his nasal passages. He is to see a ENT in two days to assess the situation. I am beside myself and I don't know what to do or how to deal with the scary prospect. please advise.
