A MyLymphomaTeam Member asked a question 💭

Anybody Have Swollen Nodes In Groin And Auxiliary Nodes
A MyLymphomaTeam Member asked a question 💭

My auxiliary nodes swole afte Covid booster. I had two ultra sounds but after two were shown to be growing, biopsy ordered. Biopsy results low grade lymphoma leukemia.
