Swollen Lymph Nodes

Are swollen lymph nodes (back of neck) an issue for MDS sufferers? I thought that was a lymphoma thing.

Hi BW,
I'm sorry no on has answered, but remember that we are not doctors. Your husband should consider moving up his appointment with his oncologist if he is concerned. To my knowledge, as only a retired RN, enlarged worrisome lymph nodes would more likely be in the front of the neck, just above the ears or near the clavicles, underarm or groin. I have not heard of that being associated with MDS, but again, he needs to check with his doctor.
