hi there i have had many symptoms over the years but lately my thyroid has caused me probs swollen at front of neck difficulty swollowing choking on mucus tired cold etc etc, im having scan done next week meanwhile i have swollen lymph nodes in various places and particularly bottom of left rib at flank my kidneys where diagnosed with medulaary sponge kidney many years ago with stones and cysts in them but unconfirmed msp just a guess, i have a hard mass under my left back rib it hurts very much it sticks out under my rib and wonder if i should have it examinined? ive also had previously blood in my urine and bowel examination came up nothing, i get pain where i think my pancreas is just thinking maybe its my pancreas i should be checking out? i have so many symptoms my bones ache daily i wake with head aches i get chest pain and pain between shoulder blades, everytime i go to doc i overwhelm them & they offer me anti depressants. i had some abnormal blood tests awhile ago high white count and then years latter high red count, my dad died of multiple myeloma my sister had non hogkins lymphoma, im feeling like i need to get more things tested, would u agree
