Okay I have a range of symptoms not sure what all is related but here goes. I was feeling relatively well to about 2 months ago. I had a complete thyroidectomy in 2007, hysterectomy in 2009. I take levothyroxin, vitamin d3 and now because of the past few visits of high blood pressure readings I take lisnopril. I started 2 months ago feeling dizzy (like a bad car sickness)and elevated blood pressure. We ruled it down to the new antidepressant he put me on that has adrenaline(which I'm allergic too) and took me off that. I had been on phentermine for over 4 months which he took me off this also. I am an exercising 43 yr old half Japanese/Caucasian women who only needs about 20 lbs to go to my ideal weight. After they took me off the antidepressant and weightloss drug I felt relatively fine and went in for routine eye appt and found I had three holes in my retina which they sent me right over for laser surgery. The very next morning i woke to the worse crike in my neck and the weirdess pain on the left side of my head. No lumps/knots or anything just a weird hurts to brush that side of my head pain. I called my eye dr he said couldnt be from anything laser surgery related. I had a check up with my primary in a wk so waited until than and when I went in once again elevated blood pressure which he put me back on lisnopril which I have been off all that for over one year. The next day after appt, it's been one week, and I had a lump appear(pea sized) on the top of my head where it was sore to touch or brush and a larger knot (peach pit sized) on the occipital part of my lower left side of head. Than a day later I found a lump(pea sized) right above my left collar bone. I've had weird headache and neck/shoulder pain only on my left side. Last night I started really feeling ill with a bad headache on the left side also and bad pain on upper left side of stomach or really between the chest and upper stomach that moved from the left to the right upper side. About one month ago I experienced two different nights of night sweats waking up totally drenched and even had one dr visit where she reported I had a slight fever( I felt nothing). So these weird things have been going on slowly progressing from two months ago. I don't feel like I have an infection type illness.(I've had these same symptoms before my thyroidectomy from graves and zero white count happening from meds.) Other than these weird things I don't feel sick ill like before I was really ill when this happened before this time I just feel tired I can take a couple hours nap daily and still be tired to go to bed at 10. Plus I have had left side joint pain in left knee to my toes in the joints mainly. This morning I woke and all my toes except my big toe on right foot ached. The lumps appearing suddenly have me really worried the most does it sound like cancer of the lymphnodes? My dr on vacation and have an appt again thursday. Any suggestions?
Hi There, did you ever find out what the pea sized lumps were caused by? I'm asking, because my co-worker has been taking phentermine and has developed a pea sized lump near his collar bone that bothers him. I'm wondering if it could be from taking this medication...? Hope all is well with you.
