    Hi cassie!

    I've been through the same thing as you, i found an enlarged lymph node on my neck, went to the doctors several times with it convinced I had cancer or something but they just kept telling me sometimes lymph node's just stay swollen after an infection for no reason. After about 4 doctor visits i just decided to try ignore it and get on with my life, and here i am 2 years on! lymph node is still there but it hasn't grown and i'm absoltuley fine. 

    Then I was speaking to my best mate and it turns out hes got a swollen lymph node on his neck too, he went crazy and went to the doctors stupid amount of times. Had a biopsy on it and it turned out to be fine, just swollen for no reason like mine was, so I wouldnt get yourself too worked up yet smile

      The more you look the more your bound to find, just like i would or anybody on here would. its normal to be able to feel some lymph nodes, they can range from 0.5cm to 2cm, so your bound to feel some of the larger ones. stop searching for them, you'll be fine smile
