Hi, new here

Hi, newbie so here it goes all started in February with slight pain in between the shoulder pain told son to rub it felt ok.

so next morning was in agony when I came down couldn't move my arm was hutched over stiff next left shoulder pain. H said you prob got pinched nerve . Persevered with the pain for a month, got put on naproxen for a month.pain still there so doctor did blood test shoulder  X-ray. 
some bloods were abnormal X-ray shoulder showed white patch . So got a X-ray for the chest came back as a shadow on the lung, then had a CT scan on the chest came back showing spine distruction mass on the spine , then had a mri of the whole spine , showed more damage and a lesion on the pelvis. Really worried now they think it could be cancer or tb.

Just waiting for a appointment lung specialist, have a appointment for pelvic ultrasound don't want they will find now. 
any advice would be great or if anyone has been in a similar situation. Waiting is driving me crazy.

  • Hello Tee12345

    I'm sorry to hear that you've had some recent health concerns which have led to needing further investigations. It's understandable that you're feeling concerned about the abnormal results and I hope that you don' have to wait too long for the rest of your appointments. 

    I think that most of our members here will understand how difficult the "not knowing" can be. Waiting for answers naturally leads to us thinking of all sorts of outcomes and this can often leave us feeling more anxious. It can help to talk to someone and I wonder if it would be useful for you to talk things through with one of our team of nurses. I'm sure they would be able to offer some advice and support whilst you're waiting for more information. If you'd like to chat with them, they're available Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm on 0808 800 4040. 

    Do keep in touch Tee12345 and let us know how you get on. 

    Best wishes,
