Could this be lymphoma? Any other ideas? Need advice and ideas

Hello! I'm hoping someone has some ideas for me. I have been dealing with my issues for nearly 2 years and don't have any answers. I was doing some research yesterday and today and was wondering if this may be lymphoma. I had mono in the past and also have eosinophilc bronchitis. I have read that there is a correlation with these and lymphoma. I am going back to my primary care physician next week, so I'd love some ideas for what might be going on with me and additional tests to request. Any help/ideas/suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Symptoms:

--Pain in front part of throat near thyroid. I have a palpable, hard lump in the front of my throat about halfway down. It feels almost like I'm being strangled. The pain can be so bad I want to cry myself to sleep. I've had 2 endocrinologists confirm it is not thyroid-related pain even though it's near the thyroid. The pain seems to mostly radiate from the area where I feel the palpable lump. An ultrasound showed the lump I feel is a lymph node. The doctor was dismissive and said the lymph node was not large and was not causing the problem. The lump (lymph node) itself doesn't hurt when I touch it, but the pain radiates from around that area. How could this not be causing the pain somehow?

--Swollen lymph node under my jaw.This is on the same side of my throat as the lymph node near my thyroid. The lymph node is probably about 1.5 inches diameter. It doesn't hurt, and is hard to the touch.

--"Numbness" in my chin and lips when the pain in my throat is bad. I used quotes because my chin and lips do not really go numb, they just have that sensation (like after you get a Novocaine shot).

--Night sweats. Not to the point where my sheets are soaking wet, but I am sweaty and my hair is wet when I wake up.

--I am always cold.

--Constant low-grade fever (99-99.5).

--Tire easily.

Thanks for your help!

I forgot to mention I also have a hard, oblong lump just beneath the back side of my rib cage. It's probably about 2.5-3 inches long. One doc said it might be a lipoma, but I wasn't sure. It may be totally unrelated to my other issues, but I wanted to throw that out there.

Thanks!

I would change doctors and, with the new doctor, explain all symptoms, duration, etc. and ask for tests to diagnose the cause of your symptoms. We have to be our own advocates in today's health system.

Just a guess, but I'm preety sure Bloodwork can confirm/deny blood cancers.
