Hi everyone,

I am 23 and 4 weeks ago I found a lump in my left armpit. Around the same time I went to my GP as the left side of my body (chest arm leg & uppper back) was very sore like a dull pain, it came and went. I was told I had inflamed chest and back muscles, and that the lump was unrelated most likely. I had to go back in 4 weeks if the lump was still there. I got anti inflammatory gel and the body pain went. She did say the lump didn’t feel sinister but too early to tell.

4 weeks is now here, the lump is still here and yesterday the pain in my body has came back. I’m going to my GP Monday but I’m terrified incase this pain is related and it might be cancer. I’m sorry if I’m over reacting but I’m so terrified and keep worrying about it. Has anyone has an experience like this?

Thanks for listening x
