Swollen lymph node behind my ear since I found out I’ve pernicious anaemia ?

[Meganmc12345]

Hi, I was diagnosed with pernicious anaemia over a year ago. I also have grade b oseophagitis which causes me really bad heart burn and I’ve never actually found out if both are linked. In November of 2018 I noticed one of my lymph glands was slightly swollen behind my right ear. This hasn’t really gone Down since. I’m not unwell otherwise but it is really bothering me because I am aware that it is swollen. Has anybody else expierenced this? I am getting my bloods done tomorrow to check my levels so hopefully know more next week but just wondering if anybody else had any anything similar? Thanks

The swollen lymph could be an ear infection as well. Mastoditis causes swollen lymph or swollen bone behind ear. I had Ear infection and it took 15-20 days for it to subside.

I was told by Gp and audiologist that a lump behind ear is a sign of inner ear infection. Two courses of antibiotics and the lump I thought was a small cyst had gone.
