Q: Swollen Lymph Nodes

Hello.
I'm 22 and have had an eating disorder for about 8 years. It's been worse the past few weeks than it has in a very long time and I noticed tonight I have a swollen small knot about the size of a quarter on the side of my neck. My "nursing student" roommate felt it and said it could be a swollen lymph node.
She hasn't a clue of my bulimia and I would like to know if any of you lovely people have had an issue with this?

Get it checked with a doctor. Swollen lymph nodes are not good news.
