Hi everyone,

this post is probably going to frustrate everyone, so i apologise in advance. Im 26 years old and i started getting a dull pain in under my right shoulder blade about 2 years ago it was also clicking when i moved my arm. As most men do i ignored it and got on with my life. As time has went on the pain and the clicking had just got worse and worse, but im a coward and just kept it locked in my head. After two years the pain is now unberable taking codiene by the minutes and still hiding it from my GF, family and i also have two young kids. im convinced its cancer but im to scared and anxious to hear the bad news. 

The only reason im writing this is because my mum recently got diagnosed with stage 2 bowel cancer and is now recieving chemotherepy and she is fighting it like an absolute legend and i feel so ashamed watching my mum go through this, while at the same time im to scared to even go the doctor lol.
