What Causes Night Sweats And Low Grade Fever While Suffering From COPD?
Husband is 65 year old with COPD but otherwise in good health. For 3 weeks he has had night sweats, low grade fever (99 - 99.8) and swollen ly mph nodes under both arms which have increased in size and tenderness. He is a VA patient and cannot be seen until later this week. Should I get him in to see someone before then?

Hello,
Welcome to hcm,
Based on your husband symptoms he needs to be evaluated to rule out the possibilities of tuberculosis, lymphomas or any other diseases. I advise you to consult your doctor.
