Please Help - Swollen Gland, Fever

Has anyone any information?  I've had a swollen lymph gland in my neck for over 3 months, the FNA (biopsy) showed a 'reactive' gland, MRI scan showed no other glands swollen in the neck.  Blood test all normal except a slightly raised white cell count - 13.5.  But I still have a low grade fever (now for 2 months),I'm loosing weight and have poor apetite.  Has anyone any info that could help??  Thanks

Did anyone check your thyroid labs, thyroid antibodies, or do an ultrasound of your thyroid?

Sounds like you have an infection. Has your physician prescribed antibiotics for you and/or tested you for Epstein-Barr virus ?
