I'm a 22 yr old female. First of all I suffer from an untreated anxiety and depression and It has caused many different symptoms all over my body but this time I'm convinced I'm sick now but God forbid. I have dorso-lumbar scoliosis since I was 10. I have a terrible posture and I don't exercise at all, I spend most of my day everyday sitting or laying on my bed when I don't have school.

Ok so last june I got a boil on my groin it was really bad and i never had something like that, it stayed for a month and a half and I self medicated with antibiotics which didn't help but then I used tea tree oil and it subsided, although it reocurred again so I guess I have to be more consistent. During that time I was worried I was gonna get sepsis, pneumonia or whatever would make my boil infection spread to my body and I started reading about people with sepsis. Ok so one day I felt this weird sudden pain in my lower back, and then it was my pelvis. It felt like sharp pains in my bone. Ok so the lower back pain was also similar to period pain but I didn't have it so after a month suffering in mid july I went to the ER, my blood work was normal, but my abdominal ultrasound and urine sample revealed I had a UTI and a kidney stone on my right kidney and I was prescribed cipro but i never took them cause I was scared of its terrible side effects.

So the last month or so my left buttock, hip and lower leg are hurting so bad, sometimes I can't even sit cause it hurts. Also I get these shooting pains on my hip, it becomes really sore and warm to touch. My stomach hurts ocassionally as well. And I feel like theres something growing in my buttock like it's beating or something. Last week my left knee started hurting as well and ocassionally my right side hurts but no too often. Google tells me it's sarcoma of course and since I'm in the age range of bone cancer, I'm tall (1.72 cm) and I'm hispanic I'm now convinced I have one although I know this sort of cancer is rare and its peak is in adolescence and more common in males I just cannot get it out of my mind and keep thinkjng i'll be one of the less 1% who get it sad I also fear it is blood clots all over my body cause I have veins in both my buttocks but I'm more scared it could be cancer spreadingsad
