I agree go get it checked. Once I had 2 swollen ones on my neck, about a year after going through breast cancer treatment. The Dr. told me that if they were soft and moveable, it was just the aftermath of a cold or some virus I didn't even know I had. If they are hard and don't move- it's not nothing.Anyway, the peace of mind is worth the 20. I was so scared, I had dh leave work and have an emergency appointment. Another hypocondriac here.

Well now my swollen glands are gone. They have completely vanished. I'm still worried. What could have caused this? What did I have wrong? I can't brush this off so easily. I can't very well go to my doctor now and ask him what's wrong with me since all my symptoms have vanished. I'm still worried and I hope I can get some rest tonight.

You might google "transient swollen glands" and see what comes up. It could even have been an allergy to something in the air or a scent. I don't think I would worry unless they come back, but I would be sure to keep aware of it.

I don't recall seeing what the resolution of your issue was; what happened with the swollen glands?
