Had a couple of "knots" removed - one very hard - Lymphomas Message Board

Hi everyone, I was just wondering if anyone has had a "fatty tumor" removed that was hard. My doc is concerned and had it sent off to test and make sure it's not cancer. Anyway, he's going on vacation for two weeks and I won't know anything until he gets back. I know it probably won't be anything but was just wanted to know if this has happend to anyone else and if it has, what happend next?
Thanks for your time,
Linda

My husband had a fatty tumor removed from the back of his neck and it was not cancer. I hope yours won't be either.

Thank you Tara...me too! I had one taken off my neck about 6 years ago. Then recently, when I had one taken off my wrist, I had another taken off the inside of my bicep and then another from my shoulder! That's the only reason I was concerned...
Take care,
Linda
