[|Human|] I have a swollen lymph node under my right arm which appeared back in the spring, along with overall fatigue (doesnt improve no matter how much sleep), joint pain (in hips and butt), muscle aches in arms and legs; GP ran blood tests for mono and lymphoma but all negative, said to keep monitoring; no improvement however - given I am a baby-boomer and had two surgeries in 1975 and 1982 requiring blood, could this be linked to possibility of Hepatitis C?
[|AI|]  Hello are having lymphadenopathy (enlargement of lymph node) . You are also having hepatitis "C". But it is very difficult to say about the possibilities which are (is) responsible for enlargement of lymph node. Few of them are :1 Infectious disease as viral, bacterial, fungal, chlamydia, parasitic, Ricketts.2 Immunologic as rheumatoid SLE3 Malignant4 Lipid storage disease.However, this is very difficult to say that which disease has caused the enlargement of lymph nodes. I recommend you please consult a surgeon and get an excisional biopsy to find out the exact reason of this enlargement of lymph nodes. Hope this will help you.
