Less than one minute read time.

Been feeling unwell for years always had inflammation on left side of neck for about 6 years always had a lump there. About a year or less have had a lump that's increasing in size and now recently in pain in centre of chest where sternum is. It is effecting my eating and sleeping and memory and hormones I'm only 29. The pain can only come once a day but pain surrounding the area may be unbearable. Had an ultrasound on it about a month ago but hospital said to do another different scan on it but gp said it's most likely a lipoma. Would really appreciate any sort of advice as everyone said to go further but gp not good at all. Thanks james

  • So sorry to hear how you are feeling. My advice is to definitely insist on further investigations by the hospital. The point about a GP is that they are not specialists which is why they refer us on. Something is going on to cause you such pain . I really hope that you get some help soon

  • Hi Jimmybobuk93, see another GP hon and quickly.  You need to have the lump properly investigated soon.  Don't let any GP fob you off.  You are entitled to further tests and to see another doctor.  Good luck x
