Hello!
I know I wrote my story in another thread, but I was curious about something. Are there lymphnodes that when enlarged are more suspicious than others? I have 2 enlarged nodes one deep in my chest and the other deep in my collarbone. I did not even know they were there. Should I be very worried? I am having a repeat CT scan at the end of October and am trying not to get too caught up in the what ifs? Any info would be great.
Thanks,
Jen

Any Lymph nodes over 2cm would be suspicious and should be monitored or even biopsy if they stay enlarged for a period of time...If you do not mind me asking how were they found? Any symptoms or by mistake?

I know a few ladies on this site that had low grade Lymphoma which was found by accident while performing other testing...
