Re: Hoarssness of voice and right supraclavicular node enlarged: help!!
Thanks Nancy for your reply.
I have now noticed that I have another supraclav nodes enlarged (just next to the first one) and both are still quite small (<1cm). How big were your nodes when you noticed recurrence? and were they tender? and how quickly were they growing or were they more than 1cm when you first noticed them/it? did you just have one node..? did they spread to other supraclav node or just keept one growing alone?
sorry million of questions for you and Sheila. (not sure what a small grape is would you say over 1cm?)
My throat is still sore so I am clinging to that although I am struggling to see how I can have an infection and no fever and other sign of malaise apparently supraclav not really link with throat so very confused. I don't have any sputum and no cough.
