    Bit of a health scare today

    For the last couple months I've slowly started to notice a small lump developing on the top of my rib cage. At first I chalked it up to weight loss as I've lost 53 lbs in the last 7 months. But as of the last 2 weeks its started to hurt. So today I bit the bullet and went to get it looked at. Had x-rays and those didn't show anything. Then the Dr. wanted to do blood work. Let me tell you that was the one of most nerve racking hours of my life waiting for them to come back. Dr. came back with positive results. So that was good but still no clue what it is. Making an appointment with a Dr. he referred me to in the morning to see what we can figure out. Man I'm only 29 I shouldn't be having these health problems or at least that's how I feel. Guess I was wrong. I told my wife I didn't have this issue until I started loosing weight so I'm getting fat again! haha

    If its soft my guess would be lipoma which is no big deal. Lets hope for that.

    Probably a Lipoma (Fatty Tumor). No big deal, I have several and have had a few removed, Unless it hurts, I don't worry about them. Hope that is all it is. Good luck.
