Hey, is it normal for both of my occipital lymph nodes to be immovable? there both pea sized and have not changed in 2 months. i'm just concerned because i've read online that a node is bad if it doesn't move?

I recommend that you go and see your doctor and ask him to examine the area and let you know what to do. Guessing online like this is not the way to solve the problem! Best wishes.
