I went to the doctors yesterday presenting with some odd symptoms but specifically a growing hard lump between my third and forth rib on the left - to - central side of my chest. It doesn't hurt but has certainly grown over the past 8 months, slowly but surely. I am due to have an x-ray, although may take a few weeks to get it booked etc. I wasn't worried about it hugely but since yesterday am having a small panic time to time, especially as it may be several weeks before I even have the x-ray, let alone get the results. I also had a blood test done on monday and most looks fine although I have quite high iron levels, but very low ferritin levels (where iron is stored) which my GP had never seen before. Just wanted to hear other peoples experiences with lumps on their chests whether it be good news or bad. TIA.
Edit: Just wanted to add that over the past few weeks I've been having some really bad back pain.
