I am a 28yr old female and I for the past 6 or more weeks now I have had an ear infection that will not clear up with 4 different kinds of Antibiotics. This is my first infection for 20yrs as I had infections when I was 4 or 5. I am already scheduled to see an ENT about a 2 year old enlarged Lymph node on my neck (right side). My ear infection is on the left. The enlarged Lymph node has been growing the past 2 years, but has been doing a waxing and waning effect. Right now it is at it's largest 1. 5-2cm and it is not painful. I can also feel new small Lymph nodes on the same chain (on the right) and some on the left that I could not feel before. My GP told me he has run out of options and that if this course of Antibiotics does not work we will just have to wait to see the ENT in January. If the largest 2yr old Lymph node was already present and I have had 4 courses of Antibiotics what is the likelyhood that it could be because of an infection? Would be be feasible for me to not know I had an ear infection for 2yrs? I know I have a higher chance of getting Lymphoma because I have Celiac Disease, but I guess the ENT will have to do a biopsy for sure.
