about a year and a half ago I noticed a small lump behind my ear and thought it was fine. I still have that lump and I have noticed a few more have popped up where lymph nodes are. One right next to my original one behind my right ear which is the size of a pea, 1 on each side of my groin which are the size of small grapes, one on the back of my head and one on my jawbone. They all don't hurt except for the one on my jaw which only hurts if I apply some pressure to the area. I went to see the doc, but its on a college campus and she was only a nurse practitioner. She gave me prilosec (for some stomach issues I have been having) and had me get some blood work done. I have also lost a pretty good amount of weight in the last 8 months without trying that much (190 - 170). I'm kind of freaked out because I have been reading that this could be lymphoma. Do you think this could be lymphoma? If my blood work comes back with no problems, should I get a second opinion? thanks.

Heya had the same problem turned out to be nothing serious and will go over time, but please try and see a real doctor to put your mind at ease and he may give you some antibiotics to get rid of it
