Try to relax and not get overly stressed! You have a right to be concerned. That is really big for a lymph node to be. I would be concerned about that if it were me too.

I actually had thought you were much younger, probably in your 20s/early 30s. Maybe its just me being a mother, thinking you were around my son's age (24).

I really hope this enlarged node is nothing serious. Wish I had a magic wand to make all this just disappear.
