For Sporty 96, Although not being a doctor, I`ve had some experience with swollen lymph glands and enlarged spleen. Diagnosis can be C.L.L. Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia, a cancer of the white blood cells. There is a huge amount of information by qualified doctors available on the I.net through C.L.L. A blood test will confirm or deny it. The red bllod cells stay normal while the white cells escalate. It is generally a "long term" ailment with only slight debilitating effects. Dont hope it will go away. See your doctor. |

sporty, I don't have time to answer your question properly now, but please disregard the comment above this one. Almost *any* symptom *could* be a symptom of cancer, but usually it is not. Your condition is probably NOT CLL. Don't panic. It is probably a temporary viral infection. No one can tell you what your swollen lymph nodes may indicate without more information, such as which lymph nodes are swollen, how long, if you have a fever, your age, why you had a splenectomy, etc. While some chronic and serious conditions can cause swollen lymph nodes, your symptoms are common. Perhaps I or another researcher can answer this soon. Chronic lymphocytic leukemia is a serious blood disorder, with the potential to be fatal.In all probability, you do not have cancer or CLL. You can tell a Google Researcher from a commenter by the color of our screen names - they are blue and "clickable", linking you to our previous work. Anyone can comment however, and commenter's screen names are black. Regards, crabcakes Google Answers Researcher |

for researcher Crabcakes. Your comments on my submission were a bit out of order. I did not claim to be a doctor, a simple blood test will confirm the indications of C.L.L., I did firmly recommend that sporty 96 see his doctor and although C.L.L. IS a serious blood disorder, or cancer if you like, it can be long term, 5-10 year survival. The doctors main diagnosis, apart from blood tests, is checking on swollen lymph nodes in the neck and the size of the spleen. I should know, as I`ve had it for five years. And if you think I`m fibbing, I`ll send management a copy of my diagnosis. |

Your lymph nodes are your body's way of fighting infection. Infectious material, ie pathogens circulate through your blood and the white blood cells which fight against infection reside in your lymph nodes. When you introduce your body to pathogens (viral or bacterial) your white blood cells increase to fight it off. Your lymph nodes recycle warn out white blood cells to rid your body of them. Your spleen recycles blood cells which have been active for 120 days, or damaged. An enlarged spleen can be a potentially serious condition, as if you were to be hit in that area your spleen could burst. An enlarged spleen is NOT a normal condition, however there are some illnesses that can cause this such as Mono. See a doctor. Before anyone responds, my information is factual. I am a nursing student. |
