465>Hi all!! I have a swollen lymph node on the right side of my neck, directly below my jawline. It has been swollen for going on 9 months now. It is not painful and it has not gotten any bigger but also has not gotten smaller. I am not sick, although i did have an upper respiratory infection when it was first noticed 9 months ago.
I have been to the doctors many times. I have been on 2 rounds of ZIthromax and Doxicycline. Still no change. I have seen TWO ENT Doctors and they both have told me that it is %26quot;clinically insignificant%26quot; and nothing to worry about. The last ENT even said it was too small to biopsy and that most people would not even notice it!!
Call me crazy, call me insane, but i am still terrified of the possibilty of cancer.
I do have night sweats and itching, but i have had those symptoms for almost 5 yrs since being on anti-deppressants.
No weight loss...actually weight gain.
I am female and 28 yrs old.
Any suggestions??
Reply:This is a shot in the dark but do you go in a hot tub regularly or every month or so? This causes my lymph nodes to swell. I use to go every week and I noticed my lymph nodes were constantly swollen, when I stopped the swelling stopped. Just a thought. If you think it is cancer then have them do a blood test, they can usually tell from your white blood count.
Reply:listen to your doctors ... you are worrying too much it might just have stayed at a low swollen stage from the resp inection and heck you have had night sweats for the past five years.... just RELAX... why do nt you start a super healthy eating diet and exercise program to seeif that makes you feel even better?
