Hi all,
I had been doing pretty well with keeping HA fears at bay, however they're back, this time I am worried about bone cancer.
It started a few weeks ago when my shoulder was aching after doing some DIY at home. Since then I've noticed pain in my shoulder and along top of my arm. I initially shrugged it off, but after being woke up a few times at night with the pain, the worry set in. I've been touching and prodding the arm and up until now it's not been tender, however today I've noticed some tenderness and I think I can feel a lump on the bone! I initially thought it could be a rotator cuff injury but now I'm pretty worried.
What's made things worse is on my other hand down by my wrist a visible, painless lump has appeared. A quick Google suggests it's a ganglion cyst.
Ordinarily I wouldn't fret too much, but because my shoulder / arm already had me worried I'm finding it hard not to obsess!
I've made an appointment to see doctors about both on Friday. However, in the meantime I'm feeling very anxious and struggling to focus on work and other things.
Not sure what I'm hoping for on here, but feeling quite anxious and hoping to work myself out of it!
