I have been following this thread and have found it very helpful thank you everyone ,I discovered a lump below my collar bone on the left side about 6 weeks ago it's the size of a ping pong ball and I'm very worried and not sleeping thinking about this I've had a x-ray that had come back clear but i'm waiting on a CT scan I'm just looking for advice from anyone that has gone through this experience as i'm not getting any answers from my doctor, Thank you everyone 

  • Hello Flute.

    I just wanted to welcome you to our forum. It's good news that your CT scan came back clear and I hope you won't have to wait too long for your CT scan. I can imagine it must be a very stressful time for you while waiting to get some clarity and some definite answers.

    I know it is really hard but try not to worry too much or anticipate what it might be. The best thing to do to avoid thinking too much about this is to keep busy and distracted if you can and avoid looking things up online. I can imagine it is hard for you to do this at the moment but it will help you feel a little less anxious. 

    I hope you will also hear from others here who have been through all this before and that they will be along soon to share their story with you. 

    Keeping everything crossed for you that everything turns out fine. 

    Best wishes,
