a Large Lump Posted: 09-16-05 07:28am
Hi cassie,
as everyone here keeps recommending to
anyone asking about stuff like that: have
it checked out! It isn't necessarily
anything, but the longer you wait, the
worse it will get if it is something. And
if you're worried about the cost of the
doctor, it will only get more expensive.
This is not the right place to save
money.
Personally, i'm battling hodgkin's
lymphoma, which was diagnosed from a lump
above my collar bone, so I know what i'm
talking about. But i've had other lumps
that haven't been anything, so don't get
too worried. Just check it out and you'll
sleep better.
