Are Night Sweats And Enlarged Lymph Nodes Suggestive Of Leukemia?

hello dear. you require evaluation.
Detailed Answer:
Hello dear. I have gone through the details. First ofall, you must be relax, no need to afraid prior to the diagnosis. There may be a possibility of either tuberculosis or some chronic infection or a low grade lymphoma. You require following investigation
1. Peripheral smear of blood for morphology
2. Blood counts repeat with differential
3. LDH.
4. Lymph node biopsy
5 mantoux test and ESR
6. Chest xray
7 ultrasound of abdomen
8. Elisa for HIV
If required, a bone marrow biopsy can be done later on.
It may turn out to be a low grade lymphoma like chronic lymphocytic luekemia
However it may turn out to be tuberculosis as well.
Please revert with reports. Both conditions are treatable
Thanks and regards
