Hi all, my name is Chris, I'm 26 and I’m worried I may have Cancer.
My journey started back in early November 2021 when I started getting terrible migraines, after a visit to the doctors, it was put down to anxiety and a symptoms being caused by my silly old brain, these headaches have since calmed down and gone away. Then about 3 weeks ago, I noticed a lymph node was swelling up on my armpit, but it rose and disappeared within a week, so I didn't think too much of it. On Saturday (12th) I received my third dose of the COVID-19 Vaccine, but this time I had Moderna (I had Pfizer the other 2 times). Within a day another lymph node has risen, which is the second time in 2 weeks, both under the same armpit. I’m not sure if its solid or meets the criteria of “hard” medically but it is quite painful. Alongside this I’ve been getting quite other symptoms especially a lot of pain in my left side under my ribs. I’ve googled my symptoms (idiot I know) and now I’m thinking my spleen is about to expand out of my body and into the abyss of space. My head is focusing so much on what is wrong with me I’m genuinely making myself more ill. Has anyone else gotten a swollen node after the vaccine, does this seem normal?
