My sister had the same problem. Lymph nodes behind her ears were like golf balls. Does your brother have any skin problems? Acne, boils? My sister was tested for MRSA and it came back positive. Her nodes were swollen because of the infection. We had no idea she had one. She was the same as your brother, constantly tired and run down and depressed. Doc put her on anti-biotics and the nodes went down and she feels 100% better.
