RA Fibro?

Posted , 2 users are following.

I have been diagnosed with lymphadenopathy due to at least three swollen lymph nodes one under each armpit and one in the groin area. I'm still waiting to go to the oncologist again to see what he has to say. I now noticed that I have a lump on my left upper arm near my shoulder just want to know if anyone else has experienced lumps like this elsewhere where could this possibly be another swollen lymph node any suggestions?

    I have a fibro tumor in my left breast so the lump stays it's not growing anymore and is the size of a small mouse . I have my under arm pits ultra sound once a year to check the swollen nodes . They are sore mostly when it's that time and I had a hystro year n half ago ( still have tubes thou ) . But lumps are normal for me but I do get them checked every year . Some are sore but heat packs help . I also do not sweat and have no Bo hence swollen for me . My left side mostly hurts .

    I've had swollen lymphs under chin, under arms and in the groin.  Turned out I was fighting some infection/s and was run down.  I came right though on antibiotics.

    All the best for your test and hope all gets sorted for you quickly..

    Thank you both I had a hysterectomy about 8 years ago. They also told me that the swollen lymph nodes are not cancerous and I have no infection so I'm a little curious as to why I was referred to an oncologist if they are not cancerous. I was thinking that maybe it was some type of an infection that they just didn't pick up and I actually asked if I could get some type of antibiotics but of course the doctor said no because I don't have an infection. So I guess I'll just have to wait until next Friday to see what exactly is going on. I just wish that I could sleep I wake up every 2 hours.

      Toya....  There is an infection that is not tested for 'normally'..    My friend had a hysterectomy and a few years later suffered seriously with oozing acidic discharge vaginally.   NOT good!  It basically was a consistant stream day and night.  It smelt apparently and she was so dam sore and run down.  She had numerous smear tests, blood tests ect, for all the basic normal infections and they always came back 'Clear'... 

      Long story short...'INFECTION'...  which came about via the surgery she had for her hysto...  In the deep inner tissues 'up in side' was a semi dormant infection sitting inside the deep cellular structure which actually 'came alive and erupted'...   The doctors both her own GP/s and the Hospital doctors were flumixed, BUT one doctor finally turned on a light bulb thought and had her tested for a pacific bug strain...'Not a common test'...but thankfully 'VOILA'....  After treatment/s it was gone!!  Yippeeeeeee  one very happy lady.  Yes she also had swollen Lymphs.

      Thank you, would you happen to know the name of the infection by any chance?
