Hello everyone :)

I discovered some swollen and painful lymph nodes on one side/ groin area...

I am totally paranoid about lymphoma and leukemia etc I've researched on the web and nothing I found was really informative ... or reassuring.

I am not feeling sick, nor tired. I'm on Remicade without 6mp or Imuran... And been in remission for a while.

Any thoughts-experiences-links to informative websites would be appreciated! I'm a bit scared... no.. A lot..

Thanks for your input!

I also have swollen lymph nodes in my groin. I have been able to feel them for awhile and a recent MRI report noted them. My GI and family doc said That they are understandably swollen as I have some other issues going on with my fistula. I am supposed to start remicade soon too and lymphoma is also a concern for me. My Grammy already passed away from lymphoma 6 years ago so I already have some genetic history. I do not have any suggested places to learn more but hope that you can find some reassuring info. Try talking to your doc too.
