Hello dear welcome to HealthcareMagic
Regarding your experience with large lump on the neck and groin chronic cough night sweat headache anaemia joint and muscle pain I strongly believe that you have developed a pulmonary tuberculosis with Lymphadenopathy
In view of this please do the following test
Chest x-ray
Sputum AFB
Mantoux test
Lymph node biopsy
Meanwhile please see a pulmonologist specialist with the results and for further clinical assessment and adequate drug prescription
I hope this helps Regards
