Back in March I discovered a lump on my neck. The doctor thought it was a twisted carotid artery, but the ultrasound showed that it was a swollen lymph. The ultrasound said that the lymph node looked normal, but the doctor said that they only way to be sure was a biopsy. She said to come back in a couple months for a follow up. The lymph gland is still swollen so I had the fine needle biopsy on 5/5. The biopsy tech never got any lymph tissue just blood, so now I have to go for an ultrasound guided biopsy. My question is: I have no symptoms other than the swollen lymph node. Am I just being paranoid? Has anyone been diagnosed with lymphoma having no other symptoms other than a swollen lymph node?
