What causes calcification in my lymph nodes?
Patient: I went to get a breast exam and the doctor stated I had calcification in my lymph nodes? He had asked me if I d been out of the country or any tattoos. I said NO. He stated he thought I would need to go to MY OBGYN and get add l tests done. Blood work etc. They my OBGYN called and said it wasn t cancer but I should get a tuberculosis TEST to rule that out. I can t imagine I have TB. that seems so strange to me. Doctor: Hi,Thanks for asking.Based on your query, my opinion is as follows.1. Lymph nodes are enlarged due to numerous conditions. Commonly Tuberculosis, and cancer in elderly.2. Get an FNAC done. It will confirm it. Mantoux test is also helpful.3. Not to worry. You will be completely cured.Hope it helps.Any further queries, happy to help again.
