Swollen node in neck . scan report says prominent but benign reactive node . then discovered swollen underarm nodes . scanned and again told benign . months later and still there - no infection history doctor doesnt seem worried . lymphoma worry ?

The reactive lymph nodes can stay there for quite a while, sometimes years. The scan said it was benign, your doctor is not worrying, not worry yourself.
