I’m 24. I think my story actually started when I began to suffer with fatigue, tired all the time, napping frequently. Then I realised I’d lost 4 stone in about 3 months. I found a 3cm lump in my groin area. Contacted GP who examined & confirmed it was a lymph node. I then found another smaller one nearby. These lumps are not moveable, and rubbery in a way but hard if that makes sense. I’ve had bloods, urine and a swab and all results were normal & infection is completely ruled out so I’ve been referred to a consultant haematologist. My first appointment is at the beginning of August.
Recently I found another, maybe a gland, on the right side of my jaw, just under my ear as well, and you can tell it’s larger than the other side just by feel, but again, feels quite hard. It’s been over a month and those lumps are still there. But I do believe my large lump has grown more internally as I feel like it’s pressing on the nerve that runs down my leg. This only started over the past week or so. Also, I’m not sure if this is relevant but I’m now having pain during sex. Every time both during and after, and we do it frequently and this has only just started as well.
I would be grateful if anyone could share their stories similar to mine and what outcome they had please?
Thank you.
