Enlarged Lymph Nodes + Lymphoma

Hi all,

About 5 months ago I started noticing a lump on the back of my neck, so I went off to the doctors and she advised me to monitor it. A couple of weeks later I noticed two lumps at the stop of my groin both in the exact same place on either side. I thourght nothing of it and went on holiday only to come back with Impertigo. That was three months ago and I still have the enlarged lymph nodes in both areas (groin and neck). Recently I have been getting the occasional stiff neck, and sometimes feel really tired with little energy. I went for a full blood test and throat swab and it came back negative. However, I have read that blood tests do not show up any signs of Lymphoma or the alike, is this true?

The lumps are still there, dont seem to be getting any smaller and I was wondering whether or not is was the dreaded C?

Regards

Rich

My 88 year old nieghbor has small cell Lympoma/sp and Her jaw area from ear to ear swells up and under the arm pits and her stomach and around her stomach by each leg.  This last bit of swelling was brought on by the flu like systoms.  Were you alittle sick .  Make sure you have tests biopsys if needed.  They kept giving her antibotic/sp and now her stomach is burning and can't eat.  It started when she got the flu shot last halloween and hasn't stop spreading through her body.  first around the shot on the arm than under the armpit the size of a soft ball/ really than to her jaw/ the size of three softballs / chipmonk full of seeds. than her legs now back to her jaw. make sure the doctors check and if you don't get results find another until they listen and work for you.
