The pain in the back, stomach and nausea could be due to your worries, depression and anxiety. Mental problems can often trigger physical and although I understand that it must be very hard for you at the moment, you need to find a way to deal with your issues.
My sister died and although everything seemed hopeless at the time and long after, you need to learn to go on and you will. By coping with this doesn’t mean that you will forget about your mother or that you will love her less, it will just make your life miserable.
Are you taking any drugs for depression? Have you seen a doctor about this problem?
What about those painful lumps? Have you been checked by a gynecologist?
You should have regular gynecologist exams since you have a family history of genital problems.
It is possible that you have developed some small cysts that got infected and became painful but without a doctor’s evaluation, you can’t know for sure.
