Ct Results Showing Mediastinal Lymphadenopathy

Records 1-1 of 1
Subject: CT results showing mediastinal lymphadenopathy
Date: 04/11/2008
I was recently injured and admitted to the ER where they had to do a CT scan.  I had several broken facial bones, but the CT scan showed that I had diffuse bulky lymphadenopathy within the mediastinum.  A bulky node in Right paratracheal region(2.8cmx2.8cm), a right perihilar node(1.8cm in diameter), extensive prevascular lymphadenopathy (noncalcified)?.  Within the aorticopulmonary window a 1.6cm in diameter node and prevascular nodes approximately 1.5cm.  I am really concerned.  The records from the ER said it could be neoplastic and consideration for lymphoma should be given.  I also found some nodes in the supraclavicular region that are palpable.  I'm not really sure if I should notify my Dr. about the ones in my neck or just wait to see what the repeat CT scan shows in two weeks.  I have no other symptoms other than some nights I have "night sweats".  They don't drench my clothing like what I have seen as B symptoms, but they are bothersome.  I don't want to over-react, but I don't know how serious to take all of this.  Any comments would be greatly appreciated.  I have 4 children and if it is cancer, I want to find it quickly.  Thanks
