I am 27 years female. 3 months back I noticed a lump at the root of my neck. Further CT/Ultrasound showed several enlarged lymph nodes on the right pre/para tracheal regions. ESR was 45, FNAC showed granulomatous lesion and Mantoux was 21mm induration after 48 hours. I was started on anti TB medicines (4 drug combination for 2 months followed by 2 drugs for 4 months). I have completed 2 months of medications. Suddenly couple of weeks back I noticed a peanut sized lump above my collar bone on left side, which was not there earlier.
My GP sent for blood tests. Biochemistry was normal, ESR is 11 (has come down from 45). I am extremely worried if this could be cancer. But GP ruled out cancer because my blood tests are normal. I am soooo worried because despite 2 months on treatment my nodes have not regressed even a bit and additionally new nodes are appearing at a different site. I have mild pain in my lower jaw and arm pits(on and off).
My appetite and sleep are normal. I have also gain 2-3 kgs in past 2 months. can you tell me what this could be? I am panicing so much that this may be a malignancy. Please clarify.
