I've had a really rough few weeks. My dad was diagnosed with cancer after Christmas and given just a few weeks. We lost him this week. It's obviously been a stressful, devastating and tense time. During the past few weeks I've noticed unusual pain in my armpit, groin, down my legs and around my chest and back. I can only describe it as muscular aches and tenderness but it can be so painful at night that it wakes me up. Two paracetamol fix it but I'm worried about what's causing it.
Dp seems to think it's a stress reaction but I am catastrophising and worrying that it could be something sinister. I know lymph node pain is usually a sign of the body fighting infection but I have no other symptoms of any infection.
Anyone have any advice?
