It's good that you're seeing your doctor soon about these lumps. Subcutaneous nodules (lumps under the skin) can form on the legs and may vary in size from very small to about 2 centimeters. These nodules might appear and disappear, especially in early stages.

The swelling you're experiencing when sitting or standing could be related to lymph node involvement, though lymph nodes are more commonly found in areas like the neck, groin, and armpits. Since you're taking Brukinsa (zanubrutinib), it's important to note that this medication can have side effects including:
- Bruising
- Rash
- Swelling

While these could be medication-related effects, any new lumps or swelling should always be evaluated by your healthcare team, so you're doing the right thing by getting them checked on the 15th.
