Is It Possible To Get Enlarged Lymph Nodes A Few Months After Receiving Chemotherapy?
Eight years ago I was diagnosed & had surgery for stage 3 ovarian cancer. Received chemo treatments. 2 years later cancer was found in lymph node in groin area. surgically removed & chemo treatments again. I have been cancer free for coming 6 yrs. I am a 65 yr old female. In the past few months I have had a yearly ct scan which the report showed some enlarged lymph nodes. Is this a cause for concern? I have been extremely tired the last 3-4 weeks. Thanks

Hi,
If lymphoma relapses after treatment, it usually causes signs and symptoms. These might be the same as before but they can be different. Contact your medical team if you have any of the following symptoms: enlarged lymph nodes (appearing as lumps in your armpit, neck or groin for example).
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
