This might sound crazy, but my husband and I sat in the ER all afternoon today, because he has had a pain in his left leg that comes and goes and now he also has a pain in the left area of his groin. ER doc said blood work all came back good, no clots. Said she couldn't feel any swollen lymph nodes in the area, but also explained that my husband is a big guy. Has anyone else had this happen, could it be swollen lymph nodes, do they cause pain? The pain in his leg, I believe is from his bad back, very tight muscles, it is the groin area that has me concerned. Any guidance would help. Take care and God Bless. Margaret

Also, everyone keep Craig in your thoughts and Prayers this week.

    My husband had a similar pain down his left thigh on the outside. Took him to the er did US checked for clots but everything showed up alright no pain in groin area though and that has been about one year now and nothing again so I hope it is the same for your husband. I know how it is every little pain we are very concerned.

    he worries
    When ever he has pain in back and legs he gets very nervous. His cancer was a hidden fact for 5 years due to a very bad back, 4 herniated discs. the docs tell him to take pain meds, but today he told his doc no pain meds that's what happen before and it was 5 years of cancer in the making. his family doc today told him to tell his onc, he sees the nurses tomorrow for blood work, thank goodness CEA levels will be taken. He said maybe his onc would order an exray or CT scan to make sure. As long as his CEA levels are low or non existant tomorrow, I told him not too worry. Hopefully all will be okay. I just try to make him laugh and relax. He has been so lucky so far and I think that's another thing that worries him. Thank you for your reply and that your husband is doing well. Margaret
