Hello all:

I found a lump in my boyfriend's abdomen in late June. I asked him to palpate the spot himself, and he could feel it too. I asked him to get a check-up, and he keeps putting it off. By October, it had grown from about 1 inch to 2 inches. I've asked him a few times since then to go, but he hasn't gone yet. I'm about to make him an appointment with my doctor, just to make him go.

I love him very much, and I know that if it is anything to be concerned about, he should be seen sooner rather than later.

Please advise?

Like you I would be upset.

Hope everyone has a great Summer!
