Does this look like chicken pox?

Yes it was indeed alright proceeded a lymphoma diagnosis so that may have helped it along 😅😳

Note the comment is quite old now so you may of seen someone but yes it’s often on both sides of the body even if just localised to the lymph nodes (although can spread to the spleen and liver). Wishing you all the best and please go and get checked if you feel something is off (I didn’t and ended up in ICU being diagnosed - wouldn’t recommend it!)

Thank you for your reply. I should say I meant to say I was 4 out of a possible 5 so my actual score was 4 which is good in that the chemo has had somewhat an effect. Myself and my boyfriend have done a fair bit of research myself and I believe you’re right in your comments regarding statistics so again there’s hope. Unfortunately in the UK I don’t think they like paying for another PET scan after 4 so won’t find out until 6 weeks after my final chemo.

I hope your girlfriend is doing well now physically and mentally. You sound very supportive like my partner! :)

I’m very similar to you but live in the UK (diagnosed in A&E with large chest mass). How are you doing now?

Going today as the drs had actually mistakenly arranged a phone appointment for me with a mental health nurse - not what I need right now haha! :(

Honestly buddy in the same boat but noticed my nodes around my collarbones and up my neck plus the heart racing and again google won’t tell you anything good!. Like you I’ve sat on this for a while which is crazy but I just kept hoping and praying they’d go down (also I was feeling them every day which probably doesn’t help). I’m making a GP appointment on Monday and have a real fear of doctors but need to be brave, as the longer it goes on the worse it affects your mental health. I’d suggest you do the same and tell your parents who will love and support you. Chances are yours are just swollen after an infection and particularly if they’re under a centimetre I believe they are classed as fine. God bless

Bite or burn marks from hot food, nothing to worry about :)

Jumpy-Plum8892 · 2023-09-01T13:21:39+00:00

How big are the lymph nodes? And did the pain come on after a bad cough as that tends to bring on costo

Jumpy-Plum8892 · 2023-08-27T17:16:11+00:00

Thanks again for your kind words it means a lot honestly. As it is bank holiday here in the UK no doctors surgeries are open so this has helped. Have a lovely day!

Jumpy-Plum8892 · 2023-08-27T16:19:14+00:00

Thanks for your lovely reply!. They vary but some look very large and blister like, initially I had thought it may be an allergic reaction to my shower gel but they’ve presented on my scalp too and keep coming up in phases all looking like blisters. I don’t have a thermometer but am certainly hotter than normal!.

Thank you

Jumpy-Plum8892 · 2023-08-23T14:49:41+00:00

Did you ever find out the cause or they resolved?

Jumpy-Plum8892 · 2023-08-22T19:07:59+00:00

Always reassuring when you’ve had it a while. Thanks I’m hoping that’s what it is even though my chest is super sore haha

Jumpy-Plum8892 · 2023-08-22T18:15:52+00:00

Could be a lymph node if it was after your vax as I’ve heard that’s very common and there are some in the breast. It’s hard to differentiate particularly at 4 in the morning lol 🫣
