tingling in left arm and hand + swollen glands

Post a new topicby anjgill on Wed Nov 19, 2008 10:42 pm

I'm a 27 year old mom and wife. I have a history of back problems...so when my neck started hurting...I thought it was from my back. I notice that on the left side of my neck I have a swollen lymph nodes on my cervical chain. I have one...then below that another...that has seemed to grow over the past week. Before I noticed the nodes. I started feeling a tingling/numbing feeling under my L scapula and L shoulder down my arm and into my hand. I know it has to be a nerve by the way it feels. I have noticed in the past week that when I touch the nodes...even with little pressure...I get the tingling feeling again. I decided last night to feel again...and I found another swollen node that is a little under an inch above my clavicle. I also feel the tingling when I press on this one. It is not as big as the first one I found....BUT I just found it last night.
I won't be back on insurance until Jan 1st. SO I am waiting until then to go to the doctor. AM I DUMB???? I am a little worried. I am hoping that the last node I found is not the supraclavicular node and is a chain node instead. ANY IDEAS!!!!?????? please help. Am I waiting to long to go see about myself? or am I over worried?
