What Causes Swollen Lymph Nodes Along With Excessive Sweating And Weight Loss?
Hello, I have several regions, areas, of swollen lymph nodes, supraclavicular, inguinal and the throat which includes cervical nodes. Have sweats and some weight loss, have major fatigue along with stomach issues. Concerned about lymphoma but cannot seem to get my GP to be concerned. The nodes have all been swollen for at least one year. Have taken many rounds of antibiotics, last one being Amoxicillin but the nodes do not go away. I am 64, soon to be 65. Your thoughts!

hi
thanks for using HCM.
These symptom can be caused by -Hodgkin's lymphoma, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, different types of leukemia and also by infection particularly Tuberculosis if you are exposed to it.
you need to be investigated to rule out lymphoma and leukemia. ask your GP for the same. hope it will help you.
