I totally understand, that's exactly how I felt. I know it's scary but hold on to this thought - lymphoma is treatable and curable. But you're possibly jumping the gun, swollen lymph nodes can just be the sign of an infection, not necessarily something awful. Whatever it turns out to be remember, cancer treatments have improved enormously and are continuing to do so, if that's what you happen to need - and the chances are that you won't. I won't tell you not to worry because you're bound to, but just remember that modern medicine is a wonderful thing, and you could just need a course of antibiotics!
