A member asked:
Have family history of cancer and i have an enlarged lymphnode on left side of neck, night sweats, tired, and cough. when to worry what could it be?

Worth a biopsy: Because of the night sweats, unless the node is stable and not fixed to anything. Night sweats always call for a good full physical exam; think about a TB test as well.
