Did your GP take a biopsy? I very much doubt it - typical NHS. Always insist. Take extreme care with any lymph gland swellings under the arms - they are usually an associated secondary symptom of other problems. In your case I suspect early symptoms of lachmaniasis. A hatching of parasitic eggs within the lymph system itself. You will find similar swellings in the groin which is where the queen may well reside. Sterile needles into the swellings should kill any eggs before they hatch. Is it fungal?

It is not at all helpful, and could cost lives.
