The closer it gets to the appointment the more scared i am. I'm scared of everything there going to say or do. And nobody can help me. I don't want to lose my leg ,everything on there basically says if its in the thigh its not good
Has the doc told you it's a sarcoma? It's always prefered to send someone to a dermo or someone with knowledge of issues such as yours to make sure all is ok.
You're worrying about something that you don't need to worry about. Google and articles can't examine you and give you a diagnosis.
Lipomas are found most often on the torso, neck, upper thighs, upper arms, and armpits, but they can occur almost anywhere in the body. One or more lipomas may be present at the same time. Lipomas are the most common noncancerous soft tissue growth.
I know but ever since he said its grown and need to get it out its scared me so bad. And now I've read all the info on well deffrientiated liposarcoma I'm absolutely petrified. Every time I think of the doctor on Friday I want to run, but because I cant run away its making me feel suicidal. I just don't know what to do.
I have a lipoma on my leg
You doctor says it's a lipoma. How does that become cancer? It doesn't, but with the help of Dr Google and your anxious mind it's making you think the worst.
Positive thoughts
I know but it says they get it wrong because they feel so much alike. Its the fact that they worry about them being on the thigh. Mine feel awful, its big and horrid.

Sorry exhibit is which
I know but it says....
You can believe "it" or your doctor. I'd lean toward the trained medical professional that deals with "real" people on a daily basis over a computer algorithm.
Positive thoughts
Limpoas do/will grow and a doc will always have something off like that than just leave it.
I had a mole off on my leg and I read everything and it screamed nodular melanoma and it got taken off and biopsy'd. All was ok.
You need to wait until Friday to see an expert. Google isn't an expert. I'm pretty sure you'll be back here Friday much more possitive.
Yeah seriously now, your doctor knows more than your computer. Stop being silly, stop panicking, and trust your doctor, maybe turn your computer off. I have no idea why you are googling when you have already been seen by the doctor. Google is only telling you whatever it picks up in a search. Your doctor is real, trust your doctor :)
Its because He knows how scared I get and wouldn't send me unless he was worried. He said two years ago it was lipoma I'm not sure if he thinks that now and thats why he has sent me. I haven't thought about it for two years well two and a half years so I haven't monitored its growth. so now I'm scared I should have. I'm having biopsy Friday so I think I will be in a worse state. I always hate myself for looking on Google but I always want a bit of comfort. I've been crying for a week now and it will probably get worse after Friday. I just feel alone and frightened and cant see anything good
Sorry guys just scared
You look at google for comfort? :ohmy:
We have all been there, terrified, crying, thinking *this is it* then we are still here alive and kicking the next day so we are happy, until next time...
Stop googling, it won't help you, think of things that might keep you occupied, and that you may enjoy, just try to help yourself a little if you can.
I've honestly tried. I'm waking up sweating and not sure why but I had really loose bowel movement in middle of night as well my stomach really hurt
Hi, just wanted to give you some reassurance and say that my dad had a lipoma on his thigh. It's not always something horrible:)
Hi thank-you. Do you know what size. sorry
Hi sorry I'm not sure what size, I just remember him having it removed. This was a while ago. How are you doing?
Hi liv I went back to the doctors and he says its just a lipoma and not to worry with hospital but to go back and see him in a few months. But thank-you for checking on me its appreciated. I hope your doing well
That's great news! Your welcome:)
