Also, you may have a pinched nerve in your neck and the pain may be radiating to that area. Just a thought.
They don't seem to be swollen, but they are tender. I did see on the web that there are lymph nodes in the upper chest area also. I may have to make a trip to the chiropractor & let him "work me over" Thanks for the response. Sometimes I just need reassurance that my heart is fine and all this "stuff" is normal for peri!!!!
