swollen lymph nodes in neck, clavicle area, both armpits and both sides of pelvic area. BIopsy on lymph nodes in armpit schedule in a week, I think It is possible some kind of lympoma, I show a lot of signs.
I feel for you and know it is frustrating have been dealing with similar. Although I don't have to or can't take naps during the day the first chance I have to sit still I fall asleep. You are the first person I have seen or heard of who had the same symptoms, of the perfectly fine lymph nodes in the morning and swollen tender at night. I keep going to the doctors (in the morning) and I think they think I am crazy. However, during the routine exams the dr. found a suspect, not painful lymph node, which is enlarged and now he wants to biopsy, but I think it is always that size. Not sure if some people just have some large, or those that become swollen then never really decrease in size.
Do your research on CFS. My mother has had for about 15 years and I swear the drs. do not take her seriously. She goes through really good times and really bad times. I think there is nothing more frustrating when you are an "on the go" person and then start falling asleep sitting up. Read about vitamins, I know they have been instrumental as well as daily mild aerobic excerise routine (seems to be best in the morning).
It sounds as if you are experiencing some of the same issues. The Dr. never seems overly concerned about my lymph nodes but it is a constant weekly problem for me. Yestaerday my lymph nodes were enlarged and ached under my arm and at the base of my head. Today they are still bothering me and my groin has started to ache. i teach PE all day and just have to keep napping. I am having a thyroid ultrasound on the 12th and hope it shows something. I do not want to have anything wrong but I also cannot deal with being so tired all the time. Good luck and please let me know what you find out?
I have posted on other sites before. I had a routine sonogram of carotid afew weeks ago and cardiologist noticed a enlarged kymph node in left lobe of thyroid. sent me to ENT surgeon who sent me for a ultrasound of thyroid and they foundboth lobes of thyroid to be mildly enlarged and somewhat heterogeneous which I Don't know what this means and also in the left thyroid lobe subcentimeter nodules or cysts and a enlarged node 2cmx0.7x0.7 lateral to upper pole in left lobe. Don't know is this considered large but now the ENT surgeon is sending me for a needle biopsy. I said I can't feel anything enlarged in my neck . Dr. said its very deep I couldn't feel it. This morning I noticed an enlarged node in left armpit. I am starting to worry now. The only symptom I have is being somewhat tired and night sweats but not drenching ones. Please anyone give me your input please
Why are you not on thryoid medication. Your T4 level is way off the charts as my sister has thyroid disease and is on meidcation. The medicine completly changed her life. She too at first went to a doctor who just kept monitoring her thryoid level functions. She found a great endocrinologist that told her by all of her blood work she should have been on thryoid medicine for months. Go get another opionion. Wish you well.
