Hello dear,welcome to Ask a doctor service. I reviewed your query and here is advise. You should find the cause of lymph nodes and stop taking medications without doctor recommendations. Since antibiotics dont work it may be a viral infection or EBV or a blood disease. Do a total blood count and discuss it with a doctor.
Hope I have answered the question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
