I have pain in my lower right back between bottom of rib cage and hip, on the back. There seems to be a swelling, hopefully not a tumor. I've been nauseous and fatigued and not sleeping all that well. Can't lay on that side as it causes pain. Will be calling doctor in a.m. but does anyone have any ideas? Thanks!
Take care, Judy
P.S. Happy New Year's to all!

No ideas, but hoping for an easy answer and fix to just another bump. I hate this Judy but glad to know you're on the case.
Best hopes for a Happy New Year,

I definitely think it's worth a call and a timely evaluation -- I can't say what's going on, but that sounds like a concerning collection of issues. Depending on how much pain you're in, I'd hope you can be seen as an outpatient sometime very soon. If not, your oncologist may suggest being seen in an ER to get a quick evaluation.

Please keep us updated.

Good luck.

Hi Judy,

I just want to add my good wishes and hopes that this turns out to be something much less concerning than what you fear.

Happy New Year to you too!

I'm seeing my PCP today and then I'll go from there. Thanks all for your responses and support. You all mean so much to me! Take care, Judy
