General & Family Physician 's  Response
Where are the lymph nodes? How many in no? What is meant by -blood count is high? What is the ultra sound report? Before CT scan is done, an X-ray is required. If I was treating , I would have first done an FNAC of the Lymph node. When I get these reports I shall give you my plan of treatment.
