Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Anaztrazole or Arimidex is rarely associated with such lymphadenopathy. It can be reactive and needs to be assessed clinically. Sudden onset can be due to a viral illness and may subside within 2 weeks. You should get it examined.

Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
