HI,Dear,Welcome to HCM.
Based on the facts and data of your query,you Seem to need -
treatment as following suggestions-
Get FNAC biopsy of one of these old and new tumor lumps.
Your Migrain needs seperate attendance from Physician and need not be related to your multiple lumps you have.
Dercums Lipomatosis-which is hereditary multi-tumor disease or Neurofibromatosis-which is again a hereditary multi-tumor disease with neuralgic pains in few of the tumors is mostly the possibility-based on
the facts of your query.
Surgical Excision of those painful and pressure causing lumps-is the only way out,as all these are mostly benign tumors.
If any of theses lumps increases,it again needs excision and needful treatment from Surgical Specialist.
You should not worry till the Specialist confirms it.
So don't worry till that time.Relax and forget about it and enjoy the life as it is.Migrain would go immediately.
Second opinion from your doctor on this would help you to plan treats in future.
Hope this would help you to resolve your sever anxiety and migraine.
Welcome for any further query in this regard
Will appreciate writing your feedback review comments,to help the needy patients like you at HCM.
Good Day!!
