I have a fairly big lump below my right ribcage. I have had it for a couple of months now. I first thought I had pulled a muscle or something. While I was seeing a doctor for another reason.....I asked them Did they feel it. They couldn't (that was 8 weeks ago). I think it has gotten bigger since then. As my husband can even feel it now. I kinda thought it was all in my head when nobody else but me could feel this.
I recently had a fever and bad night sweats and went to the ER the next day. I was seen but no test of any kind was done. They also felt this lump and the nurse even put a big circle around it. They said it was probably a cyst and referred me to a surgeon for further diagnosis. I have the appointment made. But in the meantime I am wondering if anyone else has experciened the same thing or has heard of it.
