Re: Lymph node in neck
Hi Becky.
Was your lymph node enlarged due to brest cancer? Or was it unrelated to cancer? In a way it feels as if mine went down just a tiny hair. The meds are almost gone and no real reduction in size. Im very scared i was hopeing it would go way down so no biopsy wld be needed!! The doc said it was very soft and moveable. And that cancer would be hard and fixed. One on right side is enlarged as well just not as bad. Its just the two unnder my ear jaw bone. I have not found atleast not yet anyother ones thats bigger! How long does it take to go down after meds? How long shld i wait after meds to do a biopsy? Cause i read it can take weeks to go back to normal. Does it sound like infection to you or cancer? Is the doc correct that cancer would make the node hard and fixed to the skin? She was not too worried cause mine was very soft and moveable. Im just soo soo scared. Its hard to tell if it went down even though i feel it may have went down a tiny hair i cant really tell. I think its the size of a grape. What should i do? Is there any signs to look for that wld show its cancer related? It did not swell like this till i got sick almost two weeks ago. How big can a neck node get just due to infection alone? Thanks in advance. And if we cld chat on phone wld be great cus i need support. I dont mind giveing my # and u can call private thats cool. Thanks becky.
