    New Symptom?

    I've been feeling quite run down for a while, with bad mouth ulcers. Inflammatory markers slightly raised, but nothing too bad.

    But now, the base of my spine is tender, and there are two 'lumps' or swellings, on either side of the spine. Should I be concerned?

    I also have an irritating pain in my upper arm (not joint) somewhere in between the elbow and shoulder, and it hurts to move my arm. Anyone experienced anything like this before?!

    Seeing GP at lunch time. Thanks guys xx

    I wish I had something to offer other than I hope that it turns out to be nothing. Good luck at the GP!!

    It's impossible to say, Gwen. I hope your doc can give you some insight and that it's all easily corrected. Got you on my mind, dear.
