to cut a long-ish story short...
im 17 years old
my doctor noticed a lump in my throat
he said it could be a goitre (in the thyroid gland)
he said id have to have a blood test and ultrasound scan to properly diagnose it
ive had the blood test, awaiting the results, and having the ultrasound soon
the thing is...
i have an extremely sensitive neck, almost like a phobia of it being touched
i get the shivers and cramp up when i think of having the ultrasound scan in a couple of weeks
and now ive just read on the internet of a girl who had the same poitential problem, but she also had to have an INJECTION IN HER NECK! this scares the hell out of me. im fine with injections in general but i just wouldnt be able to cope with one in my neck.. noo way
is it possible ill have to have one? and could i ask to be put to sleep? (i know how pathetic that sounds, but the fear is so intense and irrational i dont know if id physically let them go near my neck with a needle if i was awake
