It's great that you're seeing your GP tomorrow and that your husband is coming with you for support. Going prepared will help make the most of your appointment.

Here's what to share with your doctor:

- Location of all lumps — groin, right armpit, neck (3 lumps), and upper left collarbone
- When you first noticed each lump and whether they've grown or changed
- Night sweat details — how often they happen, how severe (e.g., waking up soaked), and how long this has been going on
- Any other symptoms — unexplained weight loss, fever, fatigue, or itching
- Your general health history and any medications you're currently taking The combination of swollen lymph nodes in multiple areas and drenching night sweats are symptoms doctors take seriously. These are known as "B symptoms" and can be important in helping your doctor understand what's going on.

Don't downplay how soaked you were — that level of detail really matters. It's also completely okay to ask your doctor directly what tests they recommend and what the next steps will be.

You're doing the right thing by going tomorrow. Bring a notepad to write down anything your doctor says — it's easy to forget things when you're anxious.
