A member asked:
My rheumatologist wants me to see a hematologist because i've had some swollen lymph nodes. do i need a hematologist or a pcp? it may be due to lupus.

Choice of specialty: You need to discuss this with the rheumatologist since they know far more info than you have provided here. It sounds as if the rheumatologist may feel that the node needs biopsy and wants another opinion.
