REcently, I started developing what I thought were hives. Now I am finding lymph nodes , red swollen, itchy and in identical area, (under my fore arms close to my armpits. (just within the past few weeks.) this morning I woke up itching terribly under my neck and found an lymph node enlarged, under my jawbone, and one under my collar bone. these itch intensely I go through the drenching night sweats, winter or summer,.. am always fatigued and have a heavy presperation problem. Have any of you experienced these symptoms, pryor to being diagnosed?

Not to mention, I never have an appetite. I am going to see my Doctor first thing monday morning, as its the weekend. Just curious as to whether or not any of you felt this intense itching, My feet also itch mostly at night to where I can’t even get to sleep. I’d like to know if any, have suffered these exact symptoms.

Thank you so much, cindy
