I am worried sick.
I've been dragging a pain in my back/ribcage for over 2 years now. There's been a lump that the doctors just brushed off.
I've finally managed to push my doctor enough to have me sent to get an ultrasound and so it seems I have a swollen lymph node.
Another one seems to be starting on the same spot on the other side.
Doctor will try to send me to get a CT scan but it might take weeks to even hear back from them if I will even get an appointment.
I have very, very itchy skin however it is dry and lotions can only do so much. No other symptoms though.
Just because of how long I've had it I am worried sick.
I am an anxious person and I did have a cough and pain in my chest for some time but that comes and goes (so maybe I should atribute it to anxiety). Should lymphoma have more permanent symptoms?
I've, of course, googled my symptoms and made things much worse for myself.
Does anyone have any idea what could be wrong?
