Swollen Lymph Nodes In Neck, Jaw, Chin With Fatigue And Warm To Touch. On Erythro After Changing From Cipro Due To Side Effects. Advice

30 / 6'2" / 155 lbs - For about 15 months I've had swollen lymph nodes in my neck, near jaw and chin, with a noticeable drop in energy, I also am very warm to the touch at all times which is a change for me as I always seemed to be quite cool to the touch before. I went to a Dr a month ago. He wasn't very thorough. Checked ears and throat visually, while lightly feeling my neck - drew 2 vials of blood - EKG - Chest X-rays - and put me on Cipro, which I switched after 4th day for Erythro due to side effects I believed were from the Cipro - According to him everything came back clear, but I still feel the same if not worse than before. He never discussed what he thought it might be, or what my suspicions were

Hi,
As all tests are clear, nothing to worry.
You might be having chronic lymphadenitis due to some chronic infection in surrounding area like throat, neck, scalp, ears.
Complete the antibiotic medicine course and gradually it will be subsided.
Even few enlarge lymph nodes remain, nothing to worry.
Ok and take care.
