Painful leg, like something is in it

Hi everyone, 

 

I have recently found swollen lymph nodes and had a very sharpe pain in my leg behind my knee, it almost feels quite dull and like something is in it. I have had scans on my lymph nodes and doctor wasn't too concerned. I have also recently been getting a sharpe pain in my left shoulder as well as my energy levels dropping massively. 
 

has anyone experienced anything similar or has any advice? That would be great :)

    Hello jj212, 

    I am sorry to hear about these symptoms you have been experiencing. It's good news the doctor wasn't too concerned but as you have recently been getting a sharp pain in your left shoulder and your energy levels have dropped, it may be worth flagging this with your GP. So it may be worth giving your doctor a call and mentioning how you have been feeling. 

    I hope you will hear from other members of the forum who have also experienced this before.

    Best of luck with your appointment with the doctor and best wishes,
