My ENT appointment was moved forward a month to the 18th Feb and the new GP sent me for a CT scan and more blood tests in the meantime. I got the results today and the CT is clear - both my tonsils are enlarged, but given it’s bilateral, it’s likely to just be reactive tonsils. None of the enlarged lymph nodes on my right side showed/were mentioned despite being visible on my neck and easily palpable so not sure what they are then.

My question is, if the CT is clear does that mean it’s NOT cancer? Or could it still be cancer despite nothing abnormal showing on the CT?
