I was diagnosed with Hodgkins Lymphoma back in 1997. It was Satge II. I had a thorocotamy done and 40 seesions of radiation done. In 2000 they found another tumor in the throat and in the right lung, both were removed with surgery again and I didnt have anymore occurances. Since than I have always just felt under the weather, my asthma almot out of control and back in 2006, my doctors fealt I developed pulmonary fibrosis. For the past 4 months I have been struggiling and the doctor I am seeing is just constantaly prescribing new mediciation and new dosages one after the other to help. My heart rate is consistanly about 100 to 108, I have some fluid build up around the heart and I have chest pains and a lot of difficulty in breathing. I just picked up my Cat Scan results to take to a lung specialist I am getting an appointment with and the report said the following things;



1. 1.0 cm pretracheal mediastinal lymph node.

2. A few small scattered retroperitoneal lymph nodes.

3. Small bilateral external iliac chain lymph nodes measure up to 1.3 cm.

4. Small scattered bilateral inguinal lymph nodes without adenopathy.



what exactly do these mean? i researched them and from what i saw it could be nothing but with someone that has had lymphoma it could be something and should be checked out. is there any reason for concern or should i not even worry about it.
