What Causes Lumps On Tongue, Swollen Neck Glands And Weight Loss?

I'm a 25yr old female. My build is very slim and I seem to be underweight at the moment. I've recently been to see my doctor on several occassions with complaints of swollen neck glands, weight loss and sweats. I was sent for a blood test which came back with nothing and then recently sent for an emergency x-ray since my doctor thinks I may be suffering from TB or possibly lymphoma. i have been on antibiotics to see if the swelling with go down but nothing seems to be happening. For the past couple of days I've had difficulty breathing and it feels like there's something in my throat...so I check and i seem to have two very large lumps on my tongue. can you help?
