Liver Lesion

I am having four prominant issues.  
1. My lymphnodes are hard (elbow bends, neck), swollen and painful (burn)
2. My abdomine hurts under my right, (your left) rib cage area.  The pain is more of an impacted feeling.  Like I would like to open myself up and retrieve whatever it is.
3. I cannot concentrate on much or better put, focus.  I tend to feel like I am in a fog or away from the activity around me.  My thought pattern is labored.
4. I had a CT.  The only irregularity the radiologist pinpointed is that my liver has a lesion.  He compared the results to a CT I had in 2008.  He felt it was "secure" due to the fact it hasn't grown.  

My issues are keeping me from living a normal life.  I am a breast cancer survivor.  I cannot seem to get the attention of my oncologist.  She doesn't think it's cancer related.  If she is correct, GREAT.  My general doc, ordered the CT.  He is refering me to three other specialists, but the appointments are further out.  I will see a Gastrologist (I am unsure of exact name of that type of doc) then a different oncologist for a second opinion.  Third I will see a Rhumatologist in Dec.  I the mean time, any ideas?  I am miserable.  The pain is sometime almost unbarable.  Any thoughts are welcome... Thank you.

Did your doctors give you any results back on blood test. Specifically Albumin, Bilirubin, GGT, SGOT=AST, and SGPT=ALT. Any and all will help to indicate what possible problem you might be faced with.
