25 days agoI have stage 4 metastatic breast cancer. I take Fulvestrant shots and Kisqali. I found a swollen lymph node behind my left ear and will have a scan done on it this Friday. Im in the Hiram / Douglasville area of Georgia. Anyone else close by? Feeling scared and lonely.

21 days agoHang in there, Anastasia. A swollen lymph node could be anything. I have stage 4 and I have a lymph node that gets swollen any time I'm even slightly under the weather. Let us know how your scan turns out. Scanxiety is REAL!

20 days agoI’m so sorry you are going through this stress and loneliness. The good news is that your drs are on top it and you will find out what it is. But like Laura, I get swollen glands often from all kinds of things. So hopefully it is just a weird anomaly. Keep up posted. Sending lots of hugs.
