Painful right arm

Hi all,

was diagnosed with non Hodgkin's lymphoma in March, had no pain but a small lump in my groin area. Was sent for a biopsy which confirmed my diagnosis.

forward 6months and now have a small lump in my neck again it was my lymphoma, the one in my groin has grown to the size and shape of a small sausage.

now I have a pain in my right arm which started off as what could be described as pain when you fall over and take the skin off your arm... smarts is probably a good word.

can anyone relate to this and how did it progress, travel.

  • Hello ianh, 

    Thank you for sharing your story. If you haven't done it already, I think it would be a good idea to get in touch with your doctor and mention this pain in your right arm. You could ask whether they think it is related to your lymphoma and whether you need to have any additional tests. 

    I hope that you get this looked at soon and that you will hear from others here who have had a similar experience and that they will share it with you. 

    Best wishes,
