I went through this a while ago, I had symptons that could have been cancer related, I kept them to myself until i plucked up courage to face the bad news from the doc. (month's, I'd probably have been inoperable if it was cancer ) only to dicover that it was an infection that needed nothing other than a course of medication for two weeks. So please if you have any suspicions see a doctor, you will either put your own mind at rest or catch it in time
