HELP swollen lymph nodes everywhere

[kyluxtrash]

Other symptoms:
itchy face (but idk if it's due to the weather)
abdominal swelling

Recent Infections:
oral thrush 2 weeks ago and I now have tonsil stones

IT WAS IN THE NECK FIRST, THEN THE ARMPIT, THEN THE GROIN, NOW ABOVE AND BELOW THE COLLARBONE which is super scary

im only 16 and my parents are delaying my appointment bc they dont think it's serious they get mad at me for thinking it might be lymphoma its ruining my life i want to cry all the time I had a normal cbc except for 18% lymphocytes wherein normal 20% but I had yeast infection that time

I still hope it's not cancer. There's still a chance it's not right? It might be immunodeficiency after my prolonged steroid use and candidiasis? Or it could be the toxins released from my nystatin use? Even if there's a node below and above my collarbone? help pls i dont want to live like this, its been the worst time of my life

Well, immunodeficiency from steroids can led to TB. But I don't have any idea  why your doctor doesn't want you to be tested or treated. Doesn't she have to report your case to some public health agency there?

I suppose you've read that 90% of TB cases are latent, but can change to the active, much more dangerous kind.

"It might be immunodeficiency after my prolonged steroid use and candidiasis? Or it could be the toxins released from my nystatin use?"
Yes, that's the most likely.

"Even if there's a node below and above my collarbone?"
Even though nearly everywhere online you see that Virchow's node being enlarged strongly point to cancer, there have been some people here where that was not true.

Plus, there might be a connection to why were you taking the steroids.

Btw, hopefully you have cut out *all* sugar because your candida seems very bad. Just taking a pill or powder is not sufficient.

apparently, I went to the doctor and she said there's nothing to worry about because it's not growing. She suggests that nodes are swelling all over my body because of extrapulmonary tb but she doesn't want me to get tested for it either :( but I should have it tested right? I don't have any other symptoms than these swellings that don't go away and it's driving me crazy.
