Hi there, how are you sleeping. I went through a stage where I had headaches that were that bad I wanted to pass out and it was due to the fact I was worrying that much I didn't sleep so once I started on Prothieden I slept well and the headaches stopped. As to the lump, I too am one that has them in the neck area and I have been chasing them since 1998, radiation usually gets rid of them and if no good chemo usually does the trick. There are a few of us now on this site with similar characteristics, lymph gland and skin mets involvement, and luckily staying away from organs or the bones. A CT scan for the Head and Neck will reveal lumps, but as mentioned a MRI is better, considering you are having such bad headaches it would not be unreasonable to ask your onc to order one, a MRI picks things up sooner than a CT scan, and that is better.

Love & Hugs Lyn
