Hi,

Just that really. .

Dsis recently told me about a lump she is having checked out. She asked me to feel and I was quite surprised how big it was. It's about the size of a small apricot, right next her right rib. It's quite movable and does feel a bit like a water balloon. After a bit of research, it looks like it's where the gallblader is. It could actually be her gallblader.

No other symptoms really. Occasionally feels sick after eating rich foods apparently. Full bloods done fairly recently, all came back fine. She's early 30's.

We're really close and I'm really worried. Has anyone else had anything like this?

TIA

Could be a lipoma which is a benign fatty lump.

@dementedpixie, yes I'd heard that these can be quite common.
