      Hi All,

      When my mel went to my liver, lungs, brain I was told it spread by blood not lymph nodes, but in the 2 years of checks before been told it had spread I did have a wied  feeling in my groin area . I did see my GP at the time but said my nodes was up but felt it was nothing to do with the cancer due to not long after surgery to remove mole. I did not get other test after surgery only check moles and nodes on visits. I have always woundered if it could have been in my groin lymph nodes before spreading but I will never know now. 

      My question is my mole was on my bottom back near hip on the right side latley I have been having the feeling I had in my nodes years before spreading. Has anyone had groin lymph node involment and if so do you get lumps or just looks swallow. I just feel a aching sensation in this area. Will have it checked going to call nurse tomorrow but just wanted anyone's experience in groin with lymph nodes with cancer in that area.

          I had melanoma in a lymph node in groin that was about 2 cm and it was hard but not at all painful . Also had one near hip that was 4.5cm it was deep so,I couldn’t see or feel it. It was not painful either .

                  Scooby – with my groin, a lump brought me to the doctor. I did have tingling before I knew there was a problem (but ever since my WLE, I thought my leg and SNB area was sore and never quite the same). 2 weeks before my lump was noticeable, I had my regular 4 month check-up where a med student, and two doctors checked me out and I was "cleared."

                  Depending on what your doctors say and do, you could  ask for an ultrasound.  For me,  an ultrasound at the ER (since of course, conventional wisdom tells you to got to the ER if you notice a lump) showed both the visible node, and also enlargement of a 2nd one that wasn't visible and not palpable either.  

                  Wishing the best for you.
