Good afternoon - I am late 60's & finished phase 1 of treatment for follicular lymphoma in mid-November (8 cycles of immunotherapy & chemo) and felt generally OK, a few side effects like peripheral neuropathy but all in all nothing too bad.
In the last few weeks (4+ weeks after the end of treatment) I have experienced swollen glands in my neck & throat & jaw line, the first ones that came up have now gone down, more recent ones are still enlarged, slightly painful, like a mild toothache. I have no problem breathing or swallowing. Is this to be expected after treatment or am I possibly fighting an infection? I am due to see my consultant in the New Year but thought I would like to "chat" to someone before then...
Thank you
