I have had a bunch of weird things happen lately and while I wait for my doctors appointment, I was wondering if anyone has had the same thing.
I have been getting a lot of conjunctivitis lately...something I NEVER got before. I have had a couple bouts of it within the past two or three months. I have it right now and its the worst its been. I have also been feeling really sick at night. I just fell asleep for a couple hours and I woke up with a really dry mouth and sore throat which usually leads me to drink a lot of water. Last night I woke up a couple times in the night to get something to drink. I also found a lump in my armpit a week ago and its still here. Usually I would pass it off as a zit or ingrown hair or whatever, but you cant see any redness near the area. It wasnt that painful in the beginning but its gotten my painful to touch. I guess those are really the things that concern me...so again, just looking for any suggestions or anything.

Is the lump hard or moveable? I have one in my right armpit, although I think it's been there for a while. That could be an enlarged lymph node. If it's painful, chances are that is responding to an infection somewhere else in your body, such as the pink eye. If it keeps getting larger and larger you might want to see a doc...which you just did lol. I had conjunctivitis a few weeks ago and have the periodic dry mouth/sore throat a lot since then, but I don't think it is as severe as what you're going through. Hope everything turned out alright at your appointment. :]
