MY HOSPITAL BLOOD TESTS showed possible CANCER OF THE LYMPH NODES!

- I'm back at Kings Mill Hospital for an Ultrasound and more blood tests to find out the cause of my health problems. I've now had an ECG, Chest X-ray, CT Scan and numerous blood tests. The blood tests today showed a marker in my blood that points towards Cancer of the Lymph Nodes. I had to wait an hour to find out the results. I have to say as soon as the Doctor mentioned the 'C' word I switched off to the world outside. I have to say the NHS have been fantastic, we are so lucky to have such a brilliant Health service that is a credit to The United Kingdom.

Judging by all the horror stories about NHS delays, overloaded A and E departments, the impossibility of getting to see a GP or a specialist, long ambulance waiting times et al, you seem to have managed to buck the trend. Well done and good luck.
As a cancer survivor i sure look at the world differently, it sounds crazy but i now appreciate the birds in the sky, the sound of bees, family etc its great youve had a chance to evaluate and change the little things, keep well❤
Yes carol you appreciate the little things that normally you wouldn't really notice, everything Is Important now when you survive, I have been critically Ill with phumonia, had a life changing stoma operation and am on my second chemo course, but I still am myself and find humor helps and having loving family and friends make It all worthwhile, glad you are better carol x
I feel the same. I'm in remission from cancer no4 at the moment and take delight in the small things every day. It makes you sort the important from the trivial. Keep positive, I truly believe it helps.
The NHS is under funded under staffed but they work miracles.
I had three spinal cord surgeries in four weeks at King's College Hospital in London. All the staff looked after me with dignity and respect. 💙
Just make the best of every day.! I was told not to expect being alive much after Christmas due to a smoking related lung disease; I quit smoking in 1979! Now connected to oxygen 24/7 I still get out and enjoy life and you can do the same. All the best in your future.
Lee, my wife died of cancer. She was 45. She left it a bit too late to get checked out. And she was a gp. Thanks for relaying the message of getting yourself checked out if you have new, unusual symptoms. It sounds so obvious but many people just get on with it and like my late wife, leave it too late. Take care and 'look after Lee' for a change, Onward my friend. x

Hi Lee, really glad your tests were OK and you're feeling much better. Really enjoy and appreciate your vids - please keep up the good work! Take care, Ged
A truly emotional rollercoaster of a day for you. It took great courage to share it with us all. What an outstanding hospital. Sending love and best wishes back to you. 😊
Came here from Geoff Buys Cars to wish you a speedy recovery!We all know where it comes from!✌
I had cancer twice Lee so i no how scary it must of been ive gone 8 years now , takecare lee get well soon 😊
All the best Lee, keep having your fish and chips mate, in moderation!
I have family members who have been ill since the elephant in the room.
We watch you all the time and wish you all the best mate and get well soon X
So glad to hear that it isn't anything serious Lee 😀 Thank you for updating us with this video but please do take some time out to look after yourself ❤ we will all still be here to support you whenever you feel up to it buddy 💪🏻 Sending ❤ and best wishes to you and the family 💐
Prayers for you, Lee. Roll your eyes at cancer like you do a bad airline meal.
Thinking of you and everything you have faced. This hits home for so many of us. You’re a fighter, don’t worry about the channel; your loyal viewers will always be here for you.
Get well lee take care
Being told that you might have cancer after going in for something seemingly trivial comes as one hell of a shock. I had been having stomach problems for several months and wasn’t overly concerned, but as soon as the C word was mentioned, everything changed. I genuinely thought my life was over, because the symptoms I had been experiencing made cancer almost inevitable. I went into a strange few weeks of denial, depression and fear while I waited for various tests and procedures to be completed. Thankfully, like you, it turned out not to be cancer, which was obviously a massive relief. All the staff at the hospital were absolutely brilliant, even the ones who did the Colonoscopy (which I wouldn’t recommend) and I can’t thank them enough. All the best Lee and hope all goes well for you now you know it’s not cancer.
Just come across this and iv actually got lymphoma cancer, got a scan on 23rd June after 6 months of treatment, wish me luck
Good luck x
Good luck , b strong
If your blood sample has clotted, I'd suggest they shouldn't have taken you off blood thinners. The fact your bloods clotting suggests that the root cause maybe a recent medical intervention you've taken. I hope you make a full recovery, best wishes 🙏🏻
Take it easy lee 😊
My instant reaction when he said the sample had clotted.
It’s absolutely common for blood tests to clot. Sometimes it’s because it was difficult to access the vein and took longer to take the blood, sometimes it’s because the blood has sat in the syringe too long before being put in the test bottle with EDT. Usually it has nothing to do with the patients actual blood.
If there has been a clot then you should certainly should be on them longer, I was on them for many months, I had to inject them for a while then went on to Warfarin. I was hospitalised twice after a blood clot
If its been a pulmonary embolism, then anticoagulants are usually required for a while, blood can clot in EDTA for many reasons. Need to check the INR is within therapeutic levels, your physician will know this. Hope you are feeling much better soon 😊
Thanks for the updates you have provided us. Take care of yourself first. We will all be here to watch your next blog. 🙂
I went through a horrific C scare, 6 years ago. Started with suspected heart attack, the scan revealed swollen lymph nodes, tests negative for lymphoma so lots of invasive biopsies and investigations later and no C. I treated it like a warning to live a better lifestyle, so I gave up drink, fags and started eating super healthy, cooking everything from scratch (including bread) and walking everywhere. Today I feel amazing. Gained a bit of weight though, probably because I stopped smoking 😂 Get well soon Lee 😊
Have some well deserved time and rest to yourself Lee. All us fans and viewers are behind you and will always be here for you fella ♥️👍🏻
I hope you stay well Lee and wishing you all the best. I would suggest a plant based or plant heavy diet as well as cutting out processed food and added sugar.
I am not a vegan or vegetarian or a tree hugging hippie, but around 80% of my diet is now plant based because of the health benefits alone. It's amazing how most people don't think too much about what they eat and how it can encourage illnesses later on. Fruits, veg, grains, legumes, nuts and seeds provide essential micro and macronutrients to our bodies that help to protect from, prevent and even reverse illnesses such as diabetes, asthma, heart disease, high blood pressure/cholesterol, arthritis, inflammation etc.
It's saddens me to look at most people's shopping trolleys and seeing so much frozen, processed, sugar loaded food and so little fruit and veg. I wish people would take care of themselves more.

Sounds incredibly stressful Lee but we all know you got this! Take time out and get well. YT is just an account after all. You’re family need you!! All the best man
Bless you Lee. We love the UK videos. You had us worried, We love you too. Thanks for keeping us entertained even when you were going through a difficult time. Make sure you look after yourself xx
It's been a massive wake up call buddy great news on the bloods but very scary 😨 just remember ur life is worth so much more than youtube rest up bud ❤
Gotta say Lee I was pretty shocked to watch this vlog. I’m quite relieved to hear you’ve been given the all clear from the “C” word! Rest up and relax, RUclips will still be there when your feeling better. Take it easy big man
I support your belief that it is never too late to be healthy. I wish you the best.
Thanks so much for the updates mate. Just caught up with all your videos. Your doctor is absolutely spot on buddy. Take a bit of time out amd just get yourself better. Us viewers and subscribers will still be here when you get back. We all just want you better. You take care mate and sending all our love to you as always. We think the world of you. ❤
My husband Stuart said (and I agree) you are such a genuine guy - you take time out for everyone else and now it’s time to take time out for yourself! We’re all here for you and wishing you well 🥰 see you soon - but when you’re better! Stuart said maybe it’s the Yorkshire tea 😂xx
Get well soon Lee. Everyone is rooting for you. Keep your chin up and take it easy till things come good again.
Your stoic attitude is impressive, commendable and will stand you in good stead. Along with everyone else here, sending you best wishes and positive vibes.
Glad to hear you’re feeling better, and wishing you all the best.
Kick in the guts Lee and a bit of a frightner but you have the excellent support of the NHS your loved ones and us RUclipsrs to pull you through. Upwards and Onwards Lee 😊
Oh Lee. Sending you virtual hugs. Sounds like adrenal fatigue which can affect your liver and lymph nodes too. Rest up as much as you need to ❤
Same symptoms I have Addisons, my adrenal glands have left home but 7mg prednisolone keep me going
Your health comes first we will all be waiting here for u when ur better rest and spend time with ur family
I’m glad they’ve ruled out cancer for you , from someone who is living with cancer under ongoing palliative care I can definitely relate to fogging over when first told it could be a possibility, my energy levels are always rock bottom, hopefully they’ll get to the bottom of your issue , looking forward to your many recommendations from around the UK , we’ve tried many of them and not been disappointed , Wednesday we tried Browns Pie Shop in Lincoln, the pastry was to die for , keep up the vlogging and look after yourself mate.
Thanks for sharing this Maclad, I breathed a big sigh of relief for you when you said the last blood test was ok. Get yourself better pal.
Lee you complete legend. Thank you for just telling it the way it is, as people are in the same boat as you are watching this and hopefully they will be inspired to get it checked out now. I went through similar to you and got the McMillin links off the Doctor and told it could be cancer but it all checked out ok in the end.
Ive never actually had the pleasure of meeting you but ive been following your channel for a few years and feel like i know you has a close friend. Hearing the C word mentioned got me worried for you and when you said it wasnt I punched the air with joy. I'm glad you're going to take care of your health and look forward to when you are back to making some more memories to share with us, your RUclips family. So glad your news was good.
Take some time off for yourself, Lee! Rest up and good luck with your tests in 4 weeks time. Enjoy each day and enjoy Summer in the UK!
Lee you look absolutely exhausted, worried and stressed which is understandable. Something we all have in common is none of use are getting any younger. You do a lot of travelling aboard, round the UK maybe your body is burnt out and was giving you a warning to slow down. Something that isn’t helping with stress levels is your milk float range anxiety, finding charging points, are any charging points available, are they working, charging times etc I’m guessing the stress caused by the milk float is doing more damage than alcohol. Fingers crossed The MacMaster will be back to 100% soon.
Have a few weeks off Lee , viewers will all still be here after your rest and at least your car will be fully charged, get well soon mate 👍
(If He's REALLY lucky, it might have torched itself...........)
Keeping you in my prayers Lee, let's hope this is just a blip, but I'll keep you in my thoughts. Much love from Northern Ireland x Sharon
So glad you got positive results. I’ve had a heart scare and ecg etc. and that alone was terrifying and an emotional experience so to have had tests for cancer on top of everything else, I can’t imagine what that must have been like, so I imagine emotional is an understatement. Take it easy, rest and give yourself some time to recover from all this mentally and we are all relieved and delighted the worst fears seem to have been put to bed.
Do whatever you have to do your health is above everything rest up and take all the time you need!!!
Months back when you was getting IBS/stomach problems this is probably what was in the motion. Look after yourself Lee and stay strong 💪 ❤️
My mother had the same symptoms as you... shortness of breath, pain in chest, fatigue and waking up in a pool of sweat and she was diagnosed with non-hodgkins lymphoma cancer so I was really worried when i saw the title of this video.... so very glad that appears to be not the case I wish you a speedy recovery.
Hi Lee I recently came across your Vlog on your return from US documenting EV charging experiences. I recognised a quality in your Vlog that made me sub straight away. This, however is a very different topic and it’s clear that you’re shocked by the possibility of Cancer. Anyone faced with realisations such these is immediately moved and perspectives change. The World becomes a different place. It happens to us all and it’s good you’re strong enough to share your concerns. Best of luck with the prognosis, we all need to care for others more. We suddenly come to realise that Life is not just about self.
Get well soon, Lee! Glad the ultrasound was fine and that you don't have cancer. ❤
I hope your health will come back to normal very soon mate 😁
Keep being positive ❤
My best from Scott ❤️
When you said the Doctor mentioned the 'C' word I know exactly what you went through as I had the same a couple of Months ago, now had all the tests, CT, MRI & it was then confirmed no 'C' & you do get emotional & shed Happy Tears!! Mine was an infection, treated & I'm now feeling a lot better, so all the best Lee & just chill out for a few months, as long as you say Hi to us all now & again that's fine as all the Mac Followers are going nowhere & wish you a speedy recovery!!! Take care mate!!!! 👍
Hi Lee. Thanks for the update - what a roller coaster of a day! You must be emotionally drained. I hope you soon feel better. Get some rest and take good care of yourself. Best wishes. RickLG.
Hi Lee.
Just watched your update.
You are doing all you can to recover.
The Hospital sounds amazing.
We, obviously, await further updates on your health when possible.
We look forward to any future videos from you in Great Britain.
Your friends in New Mills.
🙂
Lee, rest up and take care of yourself, sounded like an extremely long day. Best wishes to you, you got a lot of support behind you
Thanks for the update. Wishing you all the best as you get your health sorted
Good luck with the tests. Can't wait for you to be back on the road..
We love you too Lee. ❤
Take plenty of rest, body is telling you to slow down.
We will be still here and not going to leave you.
You are on the prayer list at Glenburn Methodist, Belfast. Stay strong chum.
Sorry to hear you're going through some health issues and concerns, but at least it's good news and you can start to work on your recovery and getting better. I'm going through something similar, same type of C-word scare, although in a different body area. Like your experience the NHS has been outstanding. Once all of my investigations are finished I will need to find a way to thank them. My GP's office even rang me to make sure that everything was okay and I was having all of my appointments.
Look after yourself Lee, have a well deserved rest, nice to hear at the end of the vlog that it's looking more optimistic and thank you for keeping your followers updated my friend ❤️🙏
Get well soon mate 🙏🏼 i had a similar experience
All the best - get rid of the EV no matter the cost - STRESS KILLS
Get well soon Lee, we all want you back to full health and back to enjoying the things you love to do, take it easy for now, luv Will & Jo ❤xx
Glad you're getting everything checked out - your videos are excellent wherever you are in the World, I've enjoyed them all 👍🏼 here's hoping the good news continues - take care
Only found your site a week ago 👍 Take the foot off the accelerator mate. Very best to you
Sending prayers Lee,miracles do happen keep positive
Thanks for keeping us updated, Lee. Good news so far with the results and they're definitely looking after you. Get plenty of rest and take care. Sarah sounds a star.
I just wish I was with you right now so I can give you a big hug. I'm so relieved it's not cancer. Hopefully they'll get to the bottom of it. I know people have their gripes with the NHS, but I think they're effing amazing. My husband and I will be with you every step of the way. Love you Lee and get well soon xxxx
I have had liver problems for years but may immediately point to alcohol but the biggest liver killer is diet, sugars, fatty foods and carbohydrates. Managed to reverse NAFLD by diet. Cruciferous veg and high fibre is good. Good luck with it all
I hope you get better soon. Might I recommend a visit to the Norfolk coast to put your feet up with a tall cold glass of lemonade? Brancaster is lovely. Drop me a message if you’d like some recommendations as I live in King’s Lynn
Glad to hear you're doing okay and results are pointing towards something that you can fix yourself. Must have been such a long, exhausting day so take your time, rest up. Nothing is as important as your own health and wellbeing. Sending big love, respect and good thoughts your way.
Speedy recovery mate, take care of yourself. sending positive energy to you.
A big relief Lee, take it easy mate. Wishing you all the best.
Lee there is NOTHING wrong with Crying we are all with you and wishing, and praying for you to be well as soon as possible blees you Lee
can i just say lee you are amazing person , in this video i did feel your pain if sometimes you cant do videos we will understand why ok,, your amazing family will look after you no trouble wish you a very speedy recovery mate x
That's excellent news Lee. Must have been very difficult to get through these tests, and await the outcome. I'm glad the weight can come your shoulders now, hopefully allowing you to relax a bit and get some rest. I look forward to reading your next post when you're feeling up to it. Best, Steve.
Lee, your stress levels on that drive home it’s horrendous. Gotta listen to the medics mate. Slow down, rest up we will be here if you want us when you’re ready.
Lee after skin cancer many years ago and having a tumour removed I spent 2 years of appointments to be told the removal was successful, however they discovered a brain tumour which is extremely slow growing. I have put my faith and trust in the neurosurgeon assigned to me. At first it worried me but after 4 years of scans and reports I have complete faith in our NHS and the monitoring I have, bless you Lee, have faith and trust in our hospitals and the care they give. God bless you Lee and don't fear the worst about the C word, I feel for you my friend and know exactly how you feel.
Wishing you a speedy recovery all the best for the future.
What a rollercoaster.... Hope the good news keeps coming the forthcoming weeks. Get well and lots of respects to take us on your, not so easy, journey.
So glad to hear the results are positive. You take care . All the best.
Well negative cancer but positive news…but we know what you meant!
@@RoadCone411 In hindsight I probably should of said results are looking better but hopefully all the RUclipsrs know I meant well meaning. and good health to Lee's future. All the best.
Hope you get better soon, Lee
Sending our love
Paul and june ❤
All the very best Lee, wishing you all the best for a speedy recovery. Get back soon when you can.❤❤
All the best wishes for your recovery Lee!! It looks like you just need a long rest!! Best wishes and prayers for your chill out time!! I always practice chill out therapy!
Christ mate, you’ve had it rough, but keep going pal and take things easy
I wouldn't say forget about You Tube but I will say for the good of your health reduce your output to a more easily manageable 2 or 3 videos per week which will afford you the opportunity to rest & relax more..also as I alluded to previously, with the food vlogs maybe consider only consuming 1/3 of what is on your plate..the other 2/3 box up and give to someone down on their luck who will appreciate it..
Lee, you have been given a warning so please accept it as an indicator for change, not sweeping changes but small subtle changes...you aint daft and realise that..
Take care pal..
Number 1 is now to slow down, look after yourself. Have a lovely summer of recovery with your family we will all be here when you are ready to return.
Big hug, take care Lee.
Worst fears seemingly unfounded, and things moving the right way, which is wonderful news. Get your strength back and improve steadily. Good Luck!
My best mates father has got the same symptoms and that’s what they thought he had. They have said now they don’t think it’s the big C but they still aren’t shore what it is.
I have a large liver, and was T, total. Fatty liver, drinking 2 much milk. I was told... Take care Lee 🙏❤️❤️😊💖🇫🇷🇫🇷
I remember hearing the "C" word in relation to my own health...it felt exactly like you described it my friend . 15th August 2006 I was diagnosed with Chronic Leukaemia aged 40 years old.....glad your diagnosis suggests this is not the case, but listening to you recounting your story brought it back to me.....I am now 57 by the way ,and , as you already know from my previous comment, working at the amazing hospital you are currently under. All the best , wishing you well mate 👍 😊
Fingers crossed, hopefully diagnosis of exhaustion is accurate as you can control that. Thanks for sharing. May help others to see your journey.
I've had Lymphoma twice Lee, of the neck area once adenoids, 2nd time found in a tonsil had chemo on both occasions keep smiling❤🙏
I have survived colon cancer, i hope you get a negative result reference your Lymph nodes. All will be fine.
All sounds positive Lee. Sorry you have to be going through this but know you'll end up stronger and healthier when all is said and done. Keep taking care of yourself. Your followers (fans) are all pulling for you!!!
Hi Lee, I dont know you personally but started watching your videos since doing them in Benidorm. I've paused the video at 8:20 and I cant say how much of a relief I had for you when you mentioned that news. I have seen similar with a close family member which went the opposite way and didn't end well. I am just glad you are ok and thing will get better for you fingers crossed! Take it easy and rest up, take a break from the videos and try and fully relax for a week or 2 too! PS we're so lucky to have the NHS!
Lee positive thoughts help I know I am having cancer Issues of my own, keep healthy mate always think of the best possible outcome
Sending Good vibes x
@@TheMacMaster and the same to you Lee, I'm having a picc line installed this morning, obviously I'm not looking forward to it but it has to be done, I hope you get better soon, always look forward never back mate 😁👍
Hi hope you are better soon, you are lucky with the nhs, my experience was they were useless, I suppose it depends on which hospital, and where you are in the country,it took me three years for the result of a heart scan
Hey dude best of luck with this Am sending out positive vibes Wishing you all the very best from David Andrews Cromer Norfolk ❤️🍀
Look after yourself Lee hope all is well and thanks for being so honest as most would say they are a little sick but your honesty is so wonderful and stay strong top man.
Lee I live near you if you want to meet for a Costa and a chat👍
I was diagnosed with CLL Chronic Lymphatic Leukemia in 2012
I go to Kings Mill quite a lot.
Not saying you would have any issues,and hopefully you just need rest,but night sweats are a symptom..
I didn't find through blood work as my bloods were in normal range..
I had to go to Queens Med for an operation to remove a lymph node.
It is in my bone marrow
I'm still alive and kicking though 😊👍
❤️ Thanks Dave. Keep kicking ass. ❤️❤️
I am so sorry Lee hang on in there and stay strong my friend
Omg Lee, so pleased the news was good, i was in tears watching this vlog, my heart was breaking for you. Take good care of yourself now, but live your best life.❤
You sound exhausted Your body is clearly telling you to rest up Lee. Good to hear that you've decided to stay in the UK for the summer. Best of luck mate and get well soon.
