Not sure who to see ?
I had a CT chest done 27 of feb , due to pain , shortness of breath and tightning . Also have a WBC of 15000+
Lymp nodes in neck , armpits and groin . Loss of weight 10 + lbs in 2 months Really weak , sore back left and right upper sides , and neck . Nausea . No fever and im not sick .
CT scan as follows .
Pulmonary arteries are well opacified . There is no evidence for pulmonary ebolic disease. The thoracic aorta is intact .
There is no pleural or pericardial fluid .
There are shotty axillary nodes . There is a 1.1 cm right hilar node . Maybe reactive .
There are no focal consolidations . There are no sighns of pneumothorax .
There are bullous changes in the upper lobes more significant on the right than on the left .
Impression : No evidence for pulmonary ebloic disease . No acute intrathoracic pathology .
A 1.1 cm hilar node maybe reactive .
My primary wants me to see a pulmonologist , but i also see a infectionous disease specialist in Boston For CFS. Who i havn't seen in a year . Should i give her a call to set up a apointment ? She has been following me for 11 years now do to CFS and watching my lymphs for Hodgkins .
I posted in many forums , but i get no answers to what this maybe could mean ?

You also need to consult a pulmonologist and get lung function etc assessed.

Hi!
Yes, please see your infectious disease specialist. Hilar lymph node could be enlarged due to an inflammatory reaction secondary bullous lung disease such as emphysema or COPD or sarcoidosis. A comprehensive investigation is required keeping all the points in mind. Please consult your doctor regarding this. Take care!
