Hi
I would be very grateful for some advice and reassurance !
In a nutshell- I’m a perfectly ‘healthy’ 42 yr old.
over the past 12 months I’ve lost over 3 stone - I had a total hysterectomy last Feb due to going into early menopause / family history ( mother ovarian ca, Nan breast ca). Since then I have rapidly changed my diet so have put the loss down to that.
Here’s the however - I noticed some changes under my armpit a few weeks ago, no exact lumps just thicker skin and nodularity. I immediately stopped my HRT and went to the doctors.
I noticed shortly after a small, marble shaped hard lump above my collarbone and quite deep, this was Monday. Since then I have now got 3 smaller raised nodes in my neck and last night after checking every inch of me - I have now got a hard lump in my groin.
im awaiting a ultrasound, bloods have shown slight anemia and low neutrophils. All other bloods are normal, rechecking these again next week.
Would it be possible for lumps to appear in such a short space of time ? My appetite has diminished significantly and I feel totally exhausted and could sleep all day if I was able too, this is totally new. I’m also experiencing terrible night sweats but confused if this is because I’ve abruptly started HRT ?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated, like everyone on here I’m scared to death.
