It seems I'm fine. The Doc said the lump was a polyp(sp?) and cut the fucker off. He sent it off to make sure it was'nt cancerous. He said the polyp did'nt have anything to do with my glands swelling and did'nt really know why they were swelling. He did'nt seem too concerned since the the swelling always goes away within a week or so. Thanks for all of the kind words!
