im worried about my boyfriend i think he mite have cancer. he said that he had a lump 6 weeks ago and now its gone bigger. he thinks its a spot

but when i looked at it and felt it it didnt feel like a spot. im really upset because we both have a family history of cancer.

A lump where?
could be whole load of things, some completely harmless..some sinister.
a trip to the doctor is whats required
get it checked....you'll be glad you got there early if it IS anything to worry about.
If it isn't then you'll have peace of mind sooner too.
What ya waitin for? get going.
:blush:

ok..i knew it was for your bloke...i didnt mean for it to sound like i was having a moan at you.
only thing i can say is i had a lump arrive a few yrs ago...i pestered and pestered my GP for an answer...eventually i got one..
NHL was the verdict...cue 6 months of chemo and a lot of worrying.
at the end of the day its HIS life...and no matter how much you nag him..if he dont wanna go..then he aint gonna.
i know i'd prefer peace of mind..being a 'typical bloke' and hoping it'll go away by itself s just possibly gambling with his life.
lots of cancers (if thats what it is) are treated better if they are caught early.
good luck in gettin him to go
