Anyone ever have swollen lymph nodes on prednisone?

Just wondering did anyone else ever have their lymph nodes swell., mine started on my arms and arm pits., groin., while on prednisone?

Hi Whirlwind! I have NOT had any problems with swollen lymph nodes....

Sorry I can't help you there, but I bet someone will read your post and be able to give you some good advice........

I feel so badly for you. You are having such a hard time with this stinking disease and have an awful neuro.....

Lymph node swelling is an immune reaction, it can be due to different things, disease, allergic reaction, viruses, can all cuses them to swell, with any of them, you should be seen by a doctor. I am so sorry your so sick, on top of your MG.
Hope your doctors figure this one out for you !

My lymph nodes didn't swell with the Prednisone either as I remember it. I have had swollen glands off and on, but I don't recall it getting worse when I started Prednisone either time.

I'm sorry I'm no help either here. I hope you will be able to find a med that works well for you. You poor thing - your body is really misbehaving for you! Sounds like you have an excellent relationship with your GP though, and that should give you some comfort. It seems like he can call this other neuro he is suggesting for you, to get direction if need be.

Best of luck to you from now on, honey!

Did you ever find and answers? Everytime I'm on prednisone, my lymph nodes swell in my neck, armpits, all over... and I feel like I have the flu

Is there a chance that it could be an infection?
