Acid reflux could have eroded your esophagus and caused a sore throat. My mom has had that problem and now she is on prilosec. Hope that helps.

Go to the Dr.  Also, quit smoking...I don't know what is wrong with you, but it sounds like you are going to drive yourself crazy worrying about it...I hope you feel better and all goes well...Good luck!\n\nLung cancer would show a shadow on at least one of your lungs.  Since, your X-ray was clear you should be okay.  \n\nI just saw your other question...Go to the Dr., meanwhile, just calm down and try to relax.  Easier said then done, but you are going to make your stress level increase and in turn your headache's are probably going to get worse.  Breathe and relax...

See your doctor.  It may be nothing, but when my mom did that, she had uterine cancer.  It was caught early and they did a hysterectomy which got it all.  She has been cancer free for over 10 yrs now.\n\nI don't want to scare you and it could be nothing serious.  But knowing what happened with my mom, I would get checked out.\n\nSue

Yes, go to the ER in an emergency clinic if you think you have cancer. But, they might ask to see proof of your health insurance. Good luck.

It is not cancer but something else kindly consult your medical consultant. You may, I repeat may have a problem with the blood vessel in that area or the nerve.\n Get your heart also checked.\n \nPlease do not waste your time seeking advice on the Internet from ignorant people like me.

Breast Cancer is very rare before the age of 25, and age is the most significant risk factor. Many times young women find lumps in their breast, but this does not often indicate cancer. For your own peace of mind, please talk to your parents, and see your physician. Ask your physician as many questions as you like about self examination, I'm sure he/she will be happy to answer them. Try not to be scared. \n\nHere is an article with good info: http://www.emedicinehealth.com/articles/4982-1.asp\n\nAlthough this forum is fun, and interesting, you can get alot of variation in answers from well meaning people. Sometimes these answers cause more anxiety than is necessary, and some are just flat out wrong.

First and foremost it does not mean you have cancer. Second of all you should definitely talk to your parents about your concerns and ask to go to the doctor. He/she will probably examine them and send you for a diagnostic mammogram. I had the same problem as you last year and things were fine. The lumps turned out to be cysts which I have since discovered runs in my family. My mother and my sister both have them. One of the things my doctor told me was to notice the size of them before and after my period because one of the characteristics of cysts was that they tend to be bigger right before you start and that after wards they will gradually decrease in size. Let me stress though that I am not a nurse or a doctor and this is just what I was told. You may also want to check with a school nurse and talk to her.\n\nI hope things turn out well for you. I know how scared I was before I got my results and how relieved I was when they came back ok.

No, it does not mean cancer but get it checked out.  Could be a boil, benign cyst, or many other harmless things.

See what the dr says first if he reccomends surgery then i would also get a 2nd opinion. I did and found out i had cancer I am fine today and fully recovered . Have never had it a 2nd time thank god . Hopefully never will. God bless you and your husband. Good luck to you as well.

LOOK trust me on this... Look up hidradenitis. See if any of those symptoms pertain to you. Minor, or the major ones. If you think so.. IM Me. Dont let the ppl scare you, while it could be cancerous, it more than likely isnt.

Oh believe me you will know.... there is several people in my family that have had it and some didn't make it but I know for sure that they were in pain with it and went to the doctor and was diagnosed.  There is lots of symptoms to Cancer ... go to a doctor and just get a check up if nothing else to ease your mind.  Good luck to you.

It could be cyst, so don't try smashing it with a book, or breaking it open or anything like that.  You should probabaly have a physician look at it.  Not to scare you, but this how some cancers are found.  So if it is growing you should seek professional advice.

I wouldn't jump to lung cancer unless you have other reasons to think you may have it.  I'd go to a doctor though.  It may be a lung infection.
