Do they cause you pain?
I am giving up smoking in 2 days. Arrrrrgh! And my having a laparoscopy and hysteroscopy (for cyst/polyp and to see if any signs of endometriosis in 1 1/2 weeks. Double Arrrrrrgh!
I am in a great deal of pain. (Bowel - I have IBS, near ovary, gland pain, pain into groin, leg and hip, and around to back - I also have sciatica on that side) But the main thing that is worrying me are these glands.  This is where alot of my pain comes from......I am wondering if it could be due to whatever is going on inside...My first gyno said could be that very reason, like when you get swollen glands in your neck when you are sick, and second gyno thought for a minute, a hernia, but felt my groin and said no, but gave no indication as to what it could be. I really should stop googling things, as I am now worried about lymphoma or cancer.

my surgeon gyno said it was swollen glands but never took an interest in it ? And since I had my cysts biposyed when they were removed and all was clear I kind stopped focusing on it but a year after my surgery depending on the time of the month they are still swollen on each side.

Do yours hurt to touch? What have they said yours are? Is it part the endometriomas?
Cancer has crossed my mind, but I think I'm being paranoid. My first gyno thinks it's like when your sick and you get swollen glands in your neck. Cos I obviously have something going on in there, that's why my glands are swollen. My second gyno thought it may be from a hernia, but he checked and said not, but didn't give me any indication as to what it may be........

Yes I have bumps on both sides. I never had that before but last year I had endometriomas removed and I am a stage IV. Was it is with the swollen groin glands. That is what originally had me thinking something was wrong? I thought I had cancer. I still have the bumps even after the surgery. Is that normal?
