Hi all.
I'm new to the forum and I suffer from HA. Pretty much cancer related HA, to the point where anything can set me off into a panic about it. For example during exam time last month, I was getting bad headaches, head pressure and terrible nausea. It was all anxiety. I had no idea it could manifest such effects
But this time it's a little different.
For about a month I've had a small small lump on my eyelid. Top eyelid. Bang in the middle. Id say a tad smaller than a popcorn kernel. It hasn't hurt or anything but it's been there
A couple of days ago I noticed a small, very very small sized lump (similar to a peppercorn? But smaller) at the bottom of my neck, right in the middle of the neck. It's small but can be felt, it moves a little but not much.
Today I noticed another one a bit further up which moves around a lot. To the point where I can't find it lol.
As you can imagine. This has me in a state of panic. I quit smoking and I've not gone to work today due to the sheer panic I'm feeling. I can't help but think it's cancer and that fact alone is adding to my symptoms.
Other than the lumps, I don't have any other symptoms often linked to cancer.
Can anyone just give me advice on this? Am I worrying about nothing? I don't think they're nodes as they're bang in the centre. I also have terrible hayfever and have been sneezing about for a week and have a stuffy nose and scratchy throat. On and off.
Any input is welcome. I just don't know what to thibk
