Hi, I recently discovered a chain on lymph nodes in the back of my back from both sides that are running down in similar fashion. They are not big, but rather small and seem to hurt once in a while and then the pain dissappears and reappears throughout the day. With this, I have noticed that my legs are a bit weaker now and Im losing my appetite. I havent lost weight dramatically, I just know that Im not as hungry as I should be. But I havent been working out since the doc told me not to so that may have something to do with my loss of appetite. But Im really starting to freak out here and Im awaiting my blood work from the docs office. I cant sleep cause Im thinking the worst case scenario and this is due to everything on the internet points to things such as cancer and early HIV infection when dealing with swollen nodes. I dont believe that I have nodes swollen anywhere else but I may. Can any infection cause nodes to swell up like the way I described?
If anyone can tell me their thoughts on what this might be, I appreciate it or if they need more information from me, I'll provide it, but this is the main details thus far. Thanks.
