What Is The Lump Like Hard Nodule On My Neck?

I have a hard nodule on my on my neck about a 1/2 an inch away from my ear lobe. It is non moving and not painful. I first noticed it about two years ago and it started out the size of a pimple and has grown to the size of a marble. What are the possible causes of this. I have an appointment in 9 days and would like to be prepared.
