Im numb. I went to the haemotolgist with a lump in my groin 5cm. He really thought it was lymphoma and was direct that it would be cancer. The biopsy was sent off a week ago. And hes just rang its mestatic. Its like a dream. I feel fine. Thats it for me isnt it? Im only 55 where could it be from?

So sorry to hear this OP

So sorry, please don't panic, you need to speak to someone. Can you not ring MacMillan or Cancer Research and speak to someone who might have experience of this?

Best of luck op. The actual scan will be fine I’m sure it’s the waiting to find out what you’re dealing with which will be awful. Thinking of you this afternoon and hope you get answers asap

I’m on my own but just bumped into a lovely consultant I used to work with so of course I bloody filled up. It was nice to see her as I had been thinking of her she’s had such a lot of cancer in her life. Like you all told me she said I will feel so much better when I have a plan.

I had a lump in my neck in 2009 - consultant 99% certain it was a cyst. It wasn't - it was secondary cancer in the lymph nodes. I was just 40 with a 9 and 3 year old. After much exploration the primary was located at the base of my tongue. Chemoradiotherapy followed CT and PET scans. 13 years later I'm still here. I hope this provides a tiny bit of positivity OP.

Sending you all the positive vibes that I can and a huge unMumsnetty hug ❤️
