I posted over a month ago about my journey and how my rheumatologist thinks I have mctd or uctd but wants to rule out cancer due to the lymph nodes before starting treatment. Which is frustrating because I really want to start treatment. Unfortunately that's been a slow process. Had to get an ultrasound first and then follow up with oncologist and then schedule the biopsy, which is finally this Friday. But I'm nervous . My lymph nodes have been swollen for a little over a year. They were found in my neck and axillary area during a CT scan for something unrelated. My previous pcp said it was fine and just to ignore it. So does anyone else have persistent swollen lymph nodes?
