? viral infection: If nodes in not getting larger it may be due to mononucleosis or cytomegalow virus so you need to have blood test for EBV and CMV but if getting larger and those test negative need biopsy for diagnosis and treatment.

They're your friends: Everybody has these. If your nodes are a bit more prominent than the next person's, be glad -- your immune system may be better. Nobody really knows why. I'm also curious -- you say you're not sick at all, yet you list a gravely serious hepatitis diagnosis. You'd benefit -- even in our dysfunctional health care system -- from a relationship with a good primary care physician with time to guide.
