The lymph nodes on either side of my neck are huge. I had an ultrasound it did not show any thing. My I had a CBC my lymphocytes were normal. I was told no biopsy needed. Lymphoma was ruled out
That is great news
Tina, do you have a sinus or other infection? Have you received vaccines recently? I had an abdominal infection and sepsis back in 2017. That's the only time I had swollen nodes. I sure hope yours go back down.
Tina, I'm sure they will keep monitoring you. Very worrisome though.

These just showed up one morning I August. I had fever of 104.. But no infection that I know of. They are still swollen the ENT oncology surgeon looked at them when he removed the thyroid cancer. He ordered neck mapping, new thyroid cancer and he ordered an US on the lymph nodes . Still nothing. Have no idea. No Infection when these showed up. When my AS flared I get a fever but never that high.
Tina,
My mother had swollen lymph nodes on her neck with her ovarian cancer. Keep your eyes on your clavicle. If you see any sores go back to your doctor. My mom ended up with a massive growth on left clavicle. I don’t expect that to happen to you. I’ve been on this site for years and never heard anyone talk about this, but since you have other issues going on, I thought you might want to be aware.

That is indeed great news! It sounds like your medical team has been thorough in checking things out.
Swollen lymph nodes can occasionally occur in people with myeloma. While myeloma primarily affects plasma cells in the bone marrow, the immune system can react in various ways, sometimes causing lymph node swelling.
