Im Not Dying!

Hey guys, good news!

I had a scare with some lymph nodes on my neck...seemed large to me...idk what it meant...but internet + scared person = Cancer...so? ...well i went to the doctor yesterday and got some blood tests...of course my veins didnt comply so they had to try about 3 times before it works...but i just got the results back and everything is normal! my cholesterol is even low. I was scared my fish would be orphans ...phew!

 

Good to hear!

It's amazing how scared you can get. At a normal doc checkup he found a node in my armpit, but said that even a small cut on the hand could cause it and to come back and get it checked later. From then until when I got it checked again, everytime I felt a little wierd anywhere, i though it was cancer spreading...

It was nothing though, so all good!

 

yes...i know how that is...i had another node check out about 2 years ago...they didnt do any blood tests that just said it was "probably" nothing...then another one came i i freaked out...i waited probably 2 months before i forced myself to go and see somone again.

 

Guys, just because lymph nodes are swollen doesn't mean you have cancer. Otherwise doctors would rely on it solely for detecting cancer. Lymphs release white blood cells so when one is swollen, it's workin'! You're probably fighting off an infection or germs invading the body badly. That's what a doc told me. I ocassionally have one swollen, but I have allergies.

 

yes i know that, but the thing was that one had been swollen for 2 years and wasnt painfull... but you know...swollen to me was normal to the doctor lol...

 

Thats real good news Bruce
My doc (Dr. Vinny boom ba) told me I had a serious condition
I said "I'd like a second opinion"
He said " O.K...Your ugly too"
