hi scared,
why are you so afraid of seeing a doctor? Why suffer needlessly for a year over a condition that may worsen if you keep neglecting this delicate problem? You should know that you are worth being cared for.

Just by you given us this information alone is not enough for us to know what it is. We may have similar bumbs or sore,but that does not mean we have the same problem. I would hate telling you what I think it is when in fact it could be something far more serious.

If seeing a doctor make you so uncomfortable then at least talk with a female gyn over the phone to get an opinion, but you will most likely end up at the doctor's office anyway and you need to let her know how you feel so that she can at least meet your needs halfway, but you need to desperately get over your embarrassment to receive proper treatment. It's your life and you will be the only one feeling this pain. There's no one who will take care of you, so you must take care of yourself. You should say to yourself, I deserve to be pain free this year, enjoying life, shoot forget that my life and health are more important. I'm worth receiving the best of care.

Are you male or female. How big are the bumps.. Like the size of a mable?

Thankyou for your advice I can not face going to the doctors I am too scared last time iwent they said that if th elup got any bigger or started to hurt then they would refer me to a gynachologist I can not face that...
I was wondering if anyone could tell me what it is so maybe I had an ide before I went and would be able to get the courage to go... :(
i recently had a miscarriage and im finding hard to cope with everything, I wish ic ould get this sorted and concentrate on getting myself sorted...

Im female.. The biggest lump is abit bigger than a marble... The other 2 are alot smaller... The big one can be moved around and I suppose is quie soft the 2 smaller ones are quite hard...
I would be greatful for any advice that you could offer...

The doctors are there to help not judge and they have seen all sorts of things.I know your casew ould not be the worst either! I use to be scared to go to the gyno and I asked if they see a lot of weird things and the nurse told me "we've seen everything!" so you should just go. Remember,they are there to help

I know theyre not and I no theyre probably seen alot worse.. Im v self conciouss about anything like tht but when iv got to go about something as delicate aas this I just cant face it.. It makes me feel sick.. I can tell you how I makes me feel... I was just wondeing if anyone had had anything similar and could maybe tell me what thy wud do..Maybe to just put my mind at ease n
so I can get the courage to go...

My sister had a lump, not in the same place as you but it sounds like what she had. Hers was on her ankle and it could be moved around and was a bit squishy.
Her doctor removed the lump and it turned out to be torn muscle tissue that had broken away from another part of her body and settled itself in her ankle area. She has no idea how it got there or what part of her body it came from. It went as far as gravity would allow before settling in her ankle area.

Maybe you have something similar but what ever it is has floated as far down as it can in the center of your body.

Whatever the case, you need to have it looked at by a doctor. Lumps of any kind are nothing to take lightly.

I no they arnt and im really worried about it but at the moment I just cant face going to the doctors.. Im worried it might b something serious.. I dnt no if its the same as ur sis because it has gt bigger than when I first noticed it... It doesnt hurt all the time but it just hurts for no reason just when im sitting there... I dnt no what do...
Thankyou for the advice though... X x x

Get your butt to the doctor. Fear of it being something serious should have you moving all the quicker. If it does turn out to be serious it is much better to get it treated sooner than later.

I bet its something fairly simple but you need to get it checked out, don't wait!

What if its something that if left untreated could eventually turn into cancer? Wouldn't you want it out asap if that were the case? I know I would.

I cant face going to the doctor has really bad experiences cant really explain on here becaus I dnt wnt anyone who reads this noing n if I put it on here thy can...
Thy sdnt hurt as much anymore just now and then...
Im hoping theyll go away... My biggest fear is tht it is cancer and im scared to no.. I just cant face it... I no it sounds like im being a wimp because women have those sorts of exminations everyday I just cant explain it... Anyadivce wud b brilliant sorry if it sounds like im not listeing I am but u dnt no how hard it is... I am v greatful for any advce...

I understand how you feel. I feel that way about the dentist. In order to go, I have to take a sedative. You can ask your regular doctor about getting one. If you don't want to tell her/him that it's for the gynocologist, you can always say you're afraid to fly and you need to take a trip next week or something. They can give you something like xanax and it will relax you.

Most likely the bumps are just cysts or something of that nature, but you do need to go get them checked out. If it is cancer (i'm not in any way saying I think it is or it sounds like it is), then you're still catching it relatively early since they haven't grown that much. If, however, it seemed like cancer to them before, there's no way they would have sent you home to wait and see. So, the doctor probably thought it wasn't cancer.

If you're having sex (and it sounds like you are) you do need to go to the gyno.

*hugs* it will be okay. Just do what you need to do to get yourself to the gynocologist.

Thankyou for your reply..
They don't seem to have got any bigger lately and only hurt now and again, I just wish they would go away on their own, I know that probably sounds silly but I just wish they would go away and then I wouldnt have any of this.. Ive got few other problems going on that I dont want to put on the forum but thyre not making things any easier...
Yeah I am having sex although we havent for a while but iveonly had one internal before and that was for another reason had no choice but it could have led to something more serious if I didnt. (sorry hope that maks some sense)
thankyou for your advice you were very reassuring.. Ill just have to see if I can get up the courage to go..
