I don’t know what to do. I have been to my doctor numerous times regarding nodes. I am soo freaking tired of my fear of lymphoma taking over my life everyday. I have a node about 2 cms big that moves around under my jaw on my left side that has been there for 5+ yrs. I have been to a surgeon regarding it and there was no concern. Perhaps a node that didn’t drain after an virus infection. No on the right side I have 2 nodes a size of a pea or bit larger…that move around and are a bit firm. I am absolutely terrified. I went to my doctor for one of them and she says they flare up due to break outs of my face. Does anyone have any light to shed on my fears…im scared sick

hun i get those also. mine are right under my jaw line. if you have had them for 5+ years and it was lymphoma dont you think you would be very sick by now. If you keep on feeling the nodes they will stay a little swollen cause you are irritating them. please dont think you have that cause im quite sure you dont. quit feeling them and eventually you will forget there there. Im the same way you are about things but you have to stop feeling them or it will make you even more anxious.
