I feel a soreness in my neck when I look up but that's it; doesn't seem to hurt when I swallow. I told my local doc about it and they didn't seem alarmed. I'm afraid of any new bump, bruise, swollen anything as I never know if it is just a side effect of meds or if it is the cancer. Has anyone else had swollen glands?

Thanks, LauraLaura, I would definately tell the oncologist about it.(I just saw your post along the side as recent posts and don't know what cancer  board you post on) Lymph glands are all over the body,the neck too. I don't want you to be scared, but please tell your onclogist.I have been on the PC and the EC message board and just saw your new post.Jan hiswayc Tue, 08 Apr 2008 00:00:00 GMT Laura, I did see the kidney cancer at the top when I returned to where I started!I don't know anything about kidney cancer, but pancreatic-what I know about- does spread to the glands-my husbands had spread to the glands before he was diagnosed. We look for further spreading in the lymph glands.(actually the dr looks-he has not had chemo since Jan 16' so we're not looking!)Like  i said I don't know about kidney cancer but your oncologist needs to know anything that is going on! Then he can tell you it's nothing!Jan hiswayc Tue, 08 Apr 2008 00:00:00 GMT
