Hip pain and multiple lipomas or swollen lymph nodes(?)

grammyJo

I'm 7 years out from dx of LCIS, had bilateral mast in 2008 and pathology showed micro invasion...I didn't have any other treatment. I had a complete hysterectomy in 2009 due to fibroids, endometriosis etc. and since bc was 98% ER+, figured my ovaries were too much trouble! Anyway, I've been fine all along and had check ups etc. Last year I did have very low Vit D and took high doses for a few weeks.  Now, I've started hip pain that is probably Bursitis....but, it has been going on for a couple of months and it is more difficult to walk. I tried icing it and resting it, but it doesn't seem to matter.  It's difficult at night because it so uncomfortable.  I take Advil at night and use a cool rice pack.  Also, I feel these lumps in my thigh area ( Not cellulite!! ha!! ~ Even though I do have that as well , but several lumps that make me question if it's lymph nodes (outside of thigh?) or lipomas etc.  Then, my mind went to some kind of tissue involvement with mets etc. I know, our minds constantly go there....I wondered if any of you have felt those kinds of lumps?  I am scheduling a check up with oncologist on Monday.  It has been about 6  months since I was last checked...but, he didn't do any scans or blood tests at that time, so kind of has me concerned.  Thanks for letting me put my concerns out there....I will probably come back with arthritis diagnoses and told to lose weight again....sigh

Hi, you can go to lymphnode.net and it tells where the lymph nodes are located and what they filter. There are some lymph nodes on the front of the thighs but I don't think they're on the outside area.  Hope your checkup goes well! XOXO
