What Could Cause A Node On The Neck?

I was just told I have CLL. My blood count has gone from 14 last year to 54 today. I have one node on my neck but it is not painful. My doctor has ordered CT scans but they have not been scheduled yet. Since I m still in shock, The fast change in WBC alarms me. Could this be the faster growing CLL.

Hello
It seems from the history that you are having a enlarged lymph node in the neck.
Since you are having CLL- chronic lymphoid leukemia this can be a feature if CLL.
As told in the history your blood counts are also increased hence this requires evaluation as told by your doctor and treatment at the earliest.
Thank you
