Swelling from citicholine (CDP Choline)?

Has anyone experienced swelling in any glands or other areas from Citicholine? I think I may have isolated Citicholine as a causative force but I want to see if it was just intensifying an underlying condition that should be looked into anyway.
I saw one other person kinda-sorta mention this.
For reference, swelling was in a gland I think in my scrotum, doctor gave me antibiotics, which didn't really do much. After that I had not taken CDP Choline for a few weeks and the swelling went away, I started up on CDP Choline again, and hey, instant pain that day!
Stopped CDP Choline, swelling went down, 4 days later, gone. Hasn't come back for a week.
If it quacks like a duck...

I doubt my Primary Care Physician knows what Choline is. :( She is really good, but these things are sort of obscure.
It is annoying since Citicholine has so many positive benefits, especially for someone with ADHD. Ugh.

Perhaps you should get a different primary physician. Choline is fundamental part of your diet. I could see not knowing CDP choline specifically. However, she should know choline.
