Hi, dear I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You have multiple enlarged lymphnode. It can be due to reactive hyperplasia, tuberculosis or lymphoma. You should go for fine needle aspiration cytology or biopsy of that lump. It will give you exact diagnosis. Then you should take treatment accordingly.
You also have hypothyroidism due to hashimotos thyroiditis. You should take levothyroxin. Regularly check your T3, T4 and TSH level and set your dosage of levothyroxin accordingly. Go for ultrasound thyroid once.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
