Enlarged Lymph Nodes

So ever since i was about 13/14 years old i have had this really sharp stabbing pain in my lower right abdomen. But every time i saw the doctor they pretty much said it was nothing and 6 years down the line i have had a CT scan and blood test and they say i have enlarged lymph nodes in my spleen and some glands. They have now put me on the cancer pathway. I keep searching google and it really is starting to scare me. All saying it is some form of abdominal lymphoma. But i never have any other symptoms of lymphoma of any sort. Only the abdominal pain. Could it possibly be something mimicking lymphoma? or even an entirely different disease of some sort? 

Any ideas or advice would be greatly appreciated.Thank you

  • I am so sorry that you are going through this. 

    I have a similar situation, I had chest pain and was referred to hospital, where they took a cT scan and found growths on my breast bone. they have put me on the cancer pathway beleiveing it could be lymphoma. For my own mental health I have managed so far to stay off of Google for the most part but I have took a quick look, scared myself and left again. I am terrified, its been a horriic weekend and I can only emphasise with you as I know you must be scared. 

     

    Just know your not alone, I know that won't make you feel better but try and stay as postive as you can and remember that teh C word isn't always as scary as our minds make us think. 

     

    Please take care of yourself.
