Bone cancer?
Posted , 6 users are following.
Okay, so some of you may remember me posting about my left leg which is painful last year. I still have this pain a year on and im positive its bone cancer since it hasnt gone away!!
It goes from my hip, thigh, knee, calf and to my foot and hurts alot at night!!
My left leg also still feels weak, but not the extent where i cant do anything as i go to zumba twice a week.
Im pretty sure i have a lump on the side of my leg under my knee which i can feel when i run my hand down my leg!! The pain seems to be coming from there aswell! If i had bone cancer for a year would i not be able to walk? Im so terrified. The doctors arent listening to me at all, and just think its my thyroid issue causing it. But wouldnt that be in both legs!!

all i can suggest is to have a CBC done and check for vitamin defficiancy, cross that one of the list of possibles and then get an mri done, the docs would know if you have anything serious wrong so i wouldn't worry, and if you need further help just go to A&E and get them to check you over . take care

I feel like a nusance everytime i go to the doctors because i go quite regularly with different problems but they just dont listen to me. They just send me home or refer to me a therapist for mental health! I used to get an ache in my left arm which was deep but that seems to have gone. Would i still be able to do zumba after a year if i had bone cancer and would it be extremely painful to even walk?

I understand you being scared etc....and wanting to vent.
I'm not saying don't vent...but google and forums can scare the crap out of people....
If by chance you did have cancer...it is always best to catch it early...the earlier the better...so get to a DR.

Your Dr. can drain it...and may be able to tell what it is right away from touching it. Is it spongy feeling?
Usually PAIN is the last sign of cancer and you would have had other symptoms if it has been a year. But, since it has been a year....and its not going away...it really sounds like you have to go to the Dr.
The shooting pains down your leg...are probably because the cyst is pressing on nerves.

This girl looks REALLY young...I'm not saying she doesn't have cancer. I'm saying it is not LIKELY that she does.
Bone cancer is not typically a cancer that impacts young people. Lymphoma is...but it usually starts under the arm.
The only good answer she will get will be from her Dr.
I'm trying to ease her mind...based on a medical background...and not direct experience with cancer...and many people around me have had cancer....the leg bump statistically is more likely a cyst.
