Reply To: Can Lymph node mimic venous thrombosis in internal jugular vein?

[Leszek Urbanczak]

Hi
Thank you very much.
I wasn’t sure what to make of it first – she didn’t look too bad, but she went to the ER and came back the next day because she felt worse – and still complained of a sore throat, neck, and numbness. No fever, one tonsil enlarged (but nothing serious) – on antibiotics and NSAIDs (in the emergency room she had a fever and general malaise). I have only met one patient with Lemiere’s syndrome in the past – the patient was in a really bad condition.
I don’t have any more photos – I forgot to save them.
I’ve been going over it in my head and I think it’s lymph node pressure – according to the information you gave me.
SO thank you again
