Hi, I was wondering if some of the Lymph Nodes are above the Collarbone area? I have swollen areas on each side.  Thank You, Kaloni

    Yes there are. However, there are a myriad of reasons they may be swollen. Get it checked!

    There are.  There are many possibilities as to why you have swelling in the area.  IBC rarely presents on both sides at the same time.

    See your Dr.

    Hi, Thank You very much for replying. I am a bit worried about this. And, other signs. I just got to try to keep positive and keep my Faith. 

    Thank You, Kaloni

    I was diagnosed with IBC and had swelling above my collarbone which was indeed cancer in my supraclavical lymph nodes. It completely responded to chemo and they radiated it during radiation. I have never heard of swelling in both sides though. Mine was just on the cancerous side.

    H girls, I have a fibro adenoma in my right breast, but above my collar bone I have a slightly enlarged lymph node  7mm. I am so afraid that I have a breast cancer . How large was yours?

     

    Thank you for your answer

    See your Dr and talk to him/her.  Nodes can enlarge for many reasons.
