Symptoms: And recent medical history, such as colds, recent mono or sore throats are extremely important. What triggered the workup? Inflammation remains more likely, but context is missing and clinical impression is affected by partial picture.

Watch and wait: You may feel the nodes every couple of weeks, if any of the lymph glands doubles in size, becomes painful, ulcerates, or other nodes become enlarged, or you develop fever, or lose weight, you should see a doctor. Wish you good health!

22 y.o., very worried about high ige of 1909, ESR of 65, CRP 15.6, and LDH of 239. All other blood work normal. US of neck lymph nodes showed likely reactive. Normal ab CT scan. Does this sound more likely of cancer or of inflammation? Rash too.
