Hello,
I'm new to this forum, and have not been diagnosed with any type of cancer, but my father and grandfather passed away wit it, so I've always been very close to it.
I recently (almost a year) feel like I have a broken big toe, if I got it somewhere, it hurts, and keeps hurting for a few days.
I I have a noticeable bump, which feels like bone but isn't.
Done an x-ray, and it shows that the bump is over a part of the bone that is being eaten away.
I have scheduled a magnetic resonance, in a few days, but I am worried.
How worried should I be? Didn't sleep properly tonight.
Thanks
Hi zalle and welcome to the community but sorry to hear about your concerns.
A community like this can’t honestly say anything about what this could be and as to how worried you should be. However I will say that you have done the right thing in getting checked out and it sounds like the NHS system is doing it’s job. I do hope that you get good news.
Macmillan have many support services so do check out the Macmillan Support Line is open 8am-8pm (timings may differ across services) 7 days a week on 0808 808 00 00. These services provide cancer information, practical information, emotional support or just a listening ear. We also have our Ask an Expert section but do allow a few working days for a reply.
