Fear of groin node and tiny bruises on arms

[notnew]

Hi guys, Having a really hard time today. Felt a tiny (like lentil bean sized) hard thing where my lymph nodes are in my groin. I keep having trouble finding it again so I'm all red and hurt there now. I'm supposed to go to the gynecologist on Wednesday to have her follow up on the right ovary cysts I had. So now I'm scared. I just had this groin ultrasounded 3 months ago and they only found a few little lymph nodes that weren't enlarged. I keep thinking maybe the technician didn't see that spot, uhg... Found out my thyroid meds were too high and have had very small bruises (about 1 a week) on the upper arm underneath for the past month. Worried all these things could mean the worst and need some reassurance if anyone can help.

It might not have been a lymph node at all, but even if it was that sounds pretty small and like it would be within the normal size range for a healthy lymph node. I wouldn't worry about it (easier said than done I know) and just mention it to your doc to get further reassurance.

I had a very similar lump and it turned out to be a little cyst. Cysts are pretty common and harmless =) If you want, go back to your dr and have them look at it real quick.
