I had swollen lymph nodes measuring 1.2 by 0.7 cm in the posterior neck. The FNAC report is reactive. I have two blood reports, one from 27 February and one from 21 April. Is there anything I need to worry about? The node has been persistent for six months.

A reactive node usually means your body fought an infection like throat or viral, and the node enlarged as a response. Since it is not growing and FNAC is normal, it is likely harmless. But as it is been 6 months, keep an eye. If it grows, becomes painful or new nodes appear, follow up again.

I have major health issues and my body is not becoming healthy like a normal body as per age. I used to take juice and also ate chicken etc but I see no effect of these protein diets. My weight is not increasing, my skin is becoming dull and I am facing weight loss. I am not getting a solution to this problem. What should I do to come out of this issue? I had also done all the x rays and some 2 to 3 mm stones were found in my report on the left side of my stomach.

I was diagnosed with CML (chronic phase) in February and started Veenat 400 from March 6th, with my WBC counts remaining stable at around 5000 and my 6 month BCR ABL result being 0.953 percent. However, since July, I have been experiencing persistent mouth sores that have not improved with different remedies. My question is, what is the best way to manage this? Should I stop Veenat for a week and restart, switch to a second-generation drug, or temporarily move to a second generation drug and later return to the first generation one? My main concern is whether taking a break from Veenat will negatively affect my long term treatment goals and the possibility of achieving deep molecular remission at one year.
