How many of you have lymph node swelling around your collar bone and in the groin area. I have that, as well as other lymph nodes.
If I drop my medication, I have normal lymph nodes by backslide with illness.
Taking medication pushes back the infection, but my lymph nodes get achy and swollen.
The first 7 years of my treatment I had no lymph node problems. Couldn't even tell you where they were.
Now I feel a map of them in my body because they swell.

I have had swollen lymph nodes in the past. Before I knew I had Lyme I had one in my neck. The doctor put me on antibiotics and within a few days every lymph node in my body was swollen and painful.

Swollen lymph nodes can be attributed to bartonella as well.
I have these off and on too.

I am dealing with this now. They are swollen around my neck and right above my collar bone.
It feels like my throat is going to close up.
I think once I detox a bit, it will improve. I'm guessing it's a lot of bacteria die off, which makes sense as I just upped my dose of Ceftin.
Warm compresses are said to help...or anti-inflammatory support.
