Guest guest Posted March 25, 2006 Report Share Posted March 25, 2006 Lynne: I had the same problem as you about 2 years ago. Had a series of MRI's done, which detected several enlarged lymph nodes in the neck and cervical area. After 2 biopsies, it was determined that I was cancer- free. As it turns out, my doc now believes that my lymphatic system was reacting to having auto-immune disorders - which were not yet detected at the time. All the best to you, and I wish you good health. --- In , " Lynne " <momof6incfl@...> wrote: > > Thank you for your prayers/good thoughts & encouragement very much.
