No...no...none...no....and no.....those are the answers I would give to your questions...I would definately want to know what is going on with that lymph node if I were in your shoes....why don't they remove the node and biopsy it? You would get your answers that way! I had one removed once and it was a piece of cake! Just a local anesthetic and bingo...it was out and I had a few stitches....nothing to it....maybe request that?
Peace.

Your answers are what I thought as well, but nothing to substantiate my take on things.
I don't understand why doctors are so casual about things. I understand they don't want to jumpy immediately and act with haste, but it seems to go from one extreme to another and it is frustrating, especially trying to get information and having to resort to the net-which makes it worse!
My mother died from Lymphoma, would bring more concern?
I have appointment early tomorrow morning but it is scheduled due to other issues of cysts and evaluation for OC. I have so many symptoms that could easily be something else, but too many that are also ones that are typical of OC. Not one symptom I have can be ruled out as an OC symptom, so with the lymph node issue, thought someone here might have had some similar experience.
Thanks for your response
Please talk to your doctor tomorrow about doing a biopsy on the Lymp node. Your mother dying from Lymphoma is very significant. My cousin found a enlarged lymp node last week and had a CT-scan done the next day. It did show something so they are doing a biopsy this week. Please do not mess around with this. This is not only your life, but the life of your baby at stake also. How far along are you? Please let us know how you appointment goes tomorrow. Prayers are with you. Kasie
