Common name for it is your "tailbone".. goes back to when we used to have one ...a tail that is.

:roflmao: Sparkle I had to laugh (sorry!) I found mine when I lost a lot of weight and got really worried too!! What are we like lol xxx

[AllIhaveisme]

When I first lost a lot of weight, I got freaked out because I always felt like I was sitting on something! Now I don't notice it.

[sparkle_1979]

Glad I'm not te only one. I was in two minds if I should ask you to all have a poke around...glad I did, saves embarrassing myself at the docs again x

Late poster, but this really made me feel better!
Since losing a lot of weight, I can feel my tailbone. It ends in a ball which feels like it's part of the bone.
And I never worried about it (felt it for about a year). But the last 5 months or so I've been suffering from health anxiety, so last week I decided to Google it.
And OMG, everyone was talking about pilonidal cysts which were soft and moveable and usually outside. Some people asked about under the skin and feeling as part of the bone, but no one could tell them what it was.

So happy you all feel it too and it really is just the end of my tailbone.
And logically I knew that 'cause it doesn't hurt and I have no other symptoms (other than my crazy heart palpitations, hot/cold flashes, muscle twitches, internal shaking etc... :P). But anxiety doesn't allow me to think logical right now
