not sure

I have had 3 lumps along my neck for about 5 months. 3 more showed up about 2 months ago. The docs did a cbc and said the only cancer they cannot rule out is lymphoma. They did not give me an exact answer and told me to find a primary care giver. Now I have noticed a yellowish clear fluid leaking from an unknown source along my occipital lobe underneath my hair. Has anyone had this happen? I cannot find anything on it on the internet. Please help.

Worried in bakersfield

Hello -

I did not have any leakage from anywhere, just the massive swelling along my shoulder and neck. Did they refer you to an ENT or general surgeon to do a biopsy? Have you had any severe night sweats, fatigue, or weight loss with this? Before dx, my CBC didn't show anything either. The lymph node biopsy confirmed lymphoma.

Make sure you follow-up to find some answers. It's important to not wait. The sooner you find out what is going on, the better.

I will be thinking of you and praying for a good outcome.

Best wishes,

Pam

First I would like to say thank you for replying Pam. I have lost about 12 lbs in the last 3 months so not too bad. Only recently started sweating but it comes in flashes. Mostly in the evening. My next apt is on the 25th. Should I ask to be referred to an ent or insist apun a biopsy?
