Node enlargement after flu shot?

[Guest guest]

My husband, diagnosed in 5/08, is both ZAP-70 and CD38

positive, has trisomy 12. He has never been treated.

A few nights ago, he had difficulty sleeping because of an

enlarged lymph node under his armpit. He has had enlarged

lymph nodes but not to the extent that it affected his

sleeping. He had a flu shot one week ago. Has anyone else

had a sudden lymph node enlargement following a flu shot?

He is hoping it will go down but if it does not, perhaps

Rituxan treatment is a possibility, or something else just

for the nodes? I have read both positive and negative

comments about Rituxan monotherapy and would be interested

in any additional comments about that as well. Thank you

so much!

My best to all -
