What Causes Swelling In Left Supraclavicular Area?

Hi I m 44 and generally well. On the 1st June I was hospitalised with what turned out to be cmv. I then developed a superficial thrombophlebitis then after treatment found I had a PE. I was under haematologist as last year I had a idiopathic thrombophlebitis in my left arm. I ve been fully tested and no clotting problems were found so I m now on warfarin. During CT scans a suspect enlarged node was found in my abdomen. I am waiting for another ct scan in November as my bloods are all normal and they wonder if it was from the cmv. However last Monday I developed a soft swelling in my left supraclavicular area. I m now petrified as every time I ve googled it leads to cancer ( mainly)
