Common Questions and Answers about Ovarian cysts symptoms enlarged lymph nodes
ovarian-cysts
It did get somewhat smaller as my cysts resolved. I have also noticed enlarged lymph nodes when I had cysts before. I asked the GP, my OB/GYN, and the surgeon if they could be related to the cysts and none of them thought so. However, my personal experience leads me to believe that they are. I wonder if the immune system in some people just reacts that way to ovarian cysts. It certainly seemd to be the case with me. I wish you the best of luck on your path report!
Personally, I would expect your ovarian mass to be much larger if it were causing your enlarged lymph nodes. Most ovarian cancer preesents with a tumor larger than 5cm. But, you really need to keep pressing for answers from your doctors to be sure. Most ovarian cancer is not genetic. But, there is a small number of women who do have a genetic component to their cancer. I hope you find answers soon!
There appear to be a right pelvic lymph node measuring 1.6 x1.4 x 1.6cm. Smaller left pelvic lymph nodes are seen with the largest mesauring up to a 2.0 x 0.5 x 1.0 cm.
There is a small amount of fluid associated with the right psoas muscle, which may represent bursitis.
why Sep 14th, they are still simple cysts, and Oct 1, they can be cancerous?
If this is cancer, based on the history, is it a late diagnose? what should I do next?
benign epithelial and functional ovarian cysts, hemorrhagic ovarian cysts, endometriosis, dermoid cysts (benign teratomas), ovarian fibroids, uterine fibroids, fimbrial cysts, hydrosalpinges (swollen, fluid-filled faloppian tubes), pelvic abscesses, pelvic adhesions, bowel adhesions and adenomyosis.”
I am sure once the CA125 results come your doctor will do a more rigorous follow up.

However it is difficult to diagnose without examining.
lymph nodes can come from anywhere from a cold to cancer ... when they are isolated to one side and one spot it is usually from somewhere in that region (since it was on ur neck it could be from your mouth or nose or ears etc) since they tested it for cancer and reactionary it seems it would be a minor indication at best ...
The enlarged lymph nodes are likely "reactive" to an infection or other upper-respiratory inflammation (sinus, allergies, dental problems, etc). The increase in Tg needs to be watched as does the ultrasound appearance of the lymph node(s). A biopsy of the lymph node may be needed if the Tg continues to rise.
I got my first ever cold sore and one submental lymph node and my submandibular lymph node blew up. Now the submandibular lymph node shrunk back down, but the submental one did not. I was concerned with lymphoma because lumps just dont show up out of no where. I went to see a doctor and she said that she couldnt feel anything and just brushed it off (unfortunately she didnt look thouroughly enough because she only felt the sides of my throat and just told me it was in my head).
The ultrasound displayed some enlarged lymph nodes in the groin area, but the hematologist felt they were not of a shape that displayed anything cancerous, which was also his opinion upon physically feeling the several enlarged nodes I had when I visited. He recommends I undergo a CT scan, but he ultimately felt whatever is occurring is not cancer related in any way.
Red (Lymphangitic)streaks may be seen in the skin over a large area, and lymph nodes in the groin are usually enlarged and tender. These features may distinguish it from acute infection in the veins or thrombophlebitis (venous inflammation).
Secondary lymphedema in older persons may be due to a tumor or mass in the pelvis or groin. Obliteration of lymphatic tissue by excision or radiation therapy is another cause.
If you are less than 50 it is way lower. 98%-99% of ovarian cysts are benign. They can cause the same symptoms as ovarian cancer. It is good they are checking it out because ovarian cancer gets missed a lot. The blood test the CA 125 has a lot of false positives so do not assume you have cancer from the test. You have good doctors.
AS far as removing your ovaries. Keep them as long as you can. Women need them. I used to like my sex life. I am happily married.
Hi,
The symptoms of lymphoma include enlarged lymph nodes which sometimes cause other symptoms due to pressing of nerves (numbness) and veins (swelling).
Other symptoms include weight loss, night sweats, tiredness, fever with chills and lack of energy. The symptoms are non specific and resemble the symptoms of flu or common cold.
A physical examination and tests can make the exact diagnosis. I wish you all the best for your appointment with the breast doctor and do keep me posted.
Aside from the selling of the lymph nodes, do you have any other symptoms, like fever or weight loss? Do you have a wound or any inflammation around the area (e.g. hands, shoulder, armpit)? Lymph nodes are aggregations of white blood cells that usually become swollen when there is an infection (e.g. infected wound) or an inflammation in the surrounding area.
