I had a normal Ct scan and a Ct w/ contrast done. The Dr. told me that they believe it might be in my lymphoid. What might this lump be

Hello,
This lump could be fat tissue or an inflammatory lymph node. As there was nothing abnormal in the brain CT scan, I don't think that this node is the cause of your complaints. For this reason, I recommend consulting with a neurologist and performing a brain MRI with gadolinium enhancement.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
