Lymph node pain in neck

I'm about to start on Thursday my 4th round of FCR. Just these last few days a lymph node on my collarbone has been very painful, so much so that I have had to prop my head up with a cushion to take the strain. Since starting FCR my lymph nodes were back to normal size as far as I could tell so I feel abit deflated. As anyone had similar experience please?

Don't panic ... just get it checked out on Thursday ...

We tend to over think and analyse every lump and bump and pain .. I completely understand your anxiety .

You've done so well. You're over half way through after this round. Someone here will have much better advice but please let us know how uou get on x

I could still feel a small lymph node on either side of my lower neck after three rounds of FCR but I still achieved a complete remission. I am four years on after finishing treatment and my recent blood tests were all good. I can still feel the same lymph nodes even now.

Cheers, keepfit123
