Hi all,

A few months ago I posted about a lump under my chin that sparked my massive HA that never went away. I went to an ENT who felt it and was not concerned and he was a cancer specialist. We made a follow up for one month just to check and it sort of went away over that time but came back again. He told me he still wasn't worried and that the waxing and waning was a good sign. Well it came back again and I'm freaked out by how quickly it comes and goes. Then I googled (I know its the WORST) and read story after story about lymphoma patients who had theirs wax and wane. It made me not trust the doctor (even though I did before) because he said waxing and waning was good and now I'm thinking how could he not know this happens to people and it's cancer. So my question to you all to hopefully put my mind at ease is does anyone else have nodes that come and go?

:weep:

when I went to the doc he said my lymph glands were swollen on my chest. I thought they were tumors or cancerous. Turns out it was nothing, and they flare often. It's nothing to worry about!
