Very Scared...Please Help - Lymphomas Message Board

Hi, I was wondering if you could have lymphoma even if blood work can back normal. I have been having infections, fevers, swollen, painful lymph nodes, night sweats, severe fatigue, and very, very itchy skin and itchy lymph nodes for over a year. I also get little bumps over the affected lymph nodes.

I had tonsillitis and had a tonsillectomy, but its been almost a year and I am still getting the throat infections. I have had a CBC, ANA, and SED Rate and they came back normal. I also had a Cat Scan of my neck, chest, and abdomen and it showed swollen lymph nodes, but my ENT said its not that extreme to worry about. That was about 6 months ago. Now, I feel like my neck area is more enlarged and I am still having all these symptoms and all sorts of infections, but I don’t now what to do .

I was just wondering if anyone has any suggestions, I would really appreciate any input.

Thank you,

Nicola

Nicola,

You may like to try a few doses of Arsenicum Album 200c and see if that helps. It is a minerals based homeopathic remedy that has treated conditions like exterme fatigue, recurrent infections ec. It may just help!

Thank you so much for your advice. Yes I do take herbal remedies, vitamins, antioxidants, and I drink green tea often. There just has to be something medically wrong. I have tons of respiratory infections, yeast infections, throat infections all the time. Just with all of my symptoms like fevers everyday, its not normal for someone to have this.

I am just wondering if anyone knows of or has experienced any symptoms like these. Now all of my lymph nodes are swollen; my armpits, groin, neck, the glands that run from my ear to the back of my neck are really big....

I really appreciate any information you have :wave:

Thank you so much,

Nicola

Hello... the only way to know for sure is to do a biopsy...ask your ENT to do a biopsy that way it will ease your mind... be presistent with your doctors remember this is your life and body you need to be in control of what happens dont let them dictate you when your not happy with there answers or get a second opionion not that something is wrong but to ease your mind...
