Right now I am a very frightened women. I discovered a lump in the right side of my lower neck, right above the collar bone, some months back. The lump is hard and it does not move. It is rater large, like a golf ball. You can't look at me and see it, I can just feel it when I touch my neck. I feel fine, and it doesn't bother me at all. I discovered it by accident putting on my seat belt. It feels like a bone. I have two young children, and I'm scared to death of finding out bad news. I guess I take everything to the extreem, I am so convinced that this is going to be extreemly bad news. I went to my family doctor, and he didn't seemed to concerned, but did give me a referral for an exray, which I never got. Now the fear is starting to take me over. I'm loosing sleep over this due to worry. I have no clue what it is. The doctor said 'it feels like a bone'. I said 'well what bone is it and how come I don't have it on the other side of my neck?'. He couldn't answer that. I'm wondering if anyone in the medical field could give me some possible answers as to what this hard lump that is causing me no problems other than worry could be, and please be honest. I appreciate it so much.
