Hi,
Unfortunately, I'm back again due to a trigger in the news this week about a young healthy footballer diagnosed with lymphoma.
I'm a very fit, athletic (skinny) 28 year old and do a lot of exercise. I run every day.
I've always been able to feel my lymph nodes in my groin which I'm not concerned about as I know they've always been there. However, in 2019 I noticed 2 lumps on my neck which I went to my GP about, he wasn't too concerned and sent me for some blood tests and they were all clear. The lumps are still there now but they haven't changed so I'm okay with them.
My main concern now is a large lump under my armpit, about an inch in size, soft and moveable. I went to see my GP about this one in June this year and he wasn't too concerned. It is about double the size to the one on the other side. Again, he wasn't too concerned and he just said if it gets any bigger or if I get any other symptoms then come back. The lump has not got any bigger in 4 months and I'm definitely not tired or in any pain. I do suffer from some night sweats but I put this down to the warm weather.
I'm just concerned because I don't think it is normal to have quite a big lump under my armpit and have heard some horror stories about lymphoma in healthy people.
Thank you.
