Hi there, yes I have a medium enlarged spleen. I have had it a long time. I would say 15 years. Was told it is linked to lupus. Now I developed lymphoma and the haematologist said it could also be linked to lymphoma. They don’t know.

Hi nice to meet youI have lupus since 27 I'm 52 I recently was found to have enlarged spleen in my cancer monitoring cat scan

But on November cat scan it was back to normal they said was due to bad triple infection I had for few months.

But I'm not sure that's correct as I recently had sepsis no enlarged spleen.

So like you think lupus did it

That is interesting, I have never heard of enlarged spleen shrinking back to the normal size.
