lymph nodes

Just wondered if anyone knows the implications of having your lymph nodes removed i.e are we more prone to getting colds, etc.
I have had the nodes on the right side of my neck removed.

Thanks
Clare.

Hi Clare

I am as much in the dark as you, I have had them removed from both sides of my neck, I have heard from people that they are part of the immune system so yes you will have difficulty in fighting off colds and infections, but maybe some one else on the sight will be more clued up than us.

love
Tracey
