I’m 27 y/o and in 2021, April - I found 2 lymph nodes along my collarbone, one each side. 

I have seen a dermatologist who said it was a lymph node and not lipoma but wasn’t concerned, I’ve seen many GPS who wasn’t concerned, but I booked myself in for a private ultrasound (2021) this came back as benign, reactive lymph nodes- finally some peace!

2 years later ( Feb 2023 ) I was concerned as to why they were still there, I saw a private ENT consultant who wasn’t worried and I asked for another scan, privately. The scan confirmed they hadn’t changed and benign. Finally I can put this to bed…

Until… I am 22 weeks pregnant, last Thursday ( 4 days ago ) I had the flu vaccine in my left arm, come the Saturday ( 2 days ago ) I noticed randomly that the left collarbone lymph node has doubled in size - the right is still the same.

I have 0 symptoms otherwise. 

i am hoping it’s the flu vaccine and it’ll go back down, I saw my GP today, she said tiny, under threshold and wiggly. she isn’t concerned at all and told me to leave it a few weeks, stop touching it and see if it goes down in a few weeks. 

the waiting game feels like forever, so similar stories / stories of reassurance will be fab
