Got felt up in the gym by an RN

I had been having some problems with symptoms of a hernia and started this thread in the injury/rehab section

this was my last post...
Got an appointment in the morning with my doc...and I got a free consult from an RN in the gym tonight...haha no lie, I was wincing as my training partner was handing me dumbbells tonight and this nurse who was training nearby asks me why I'm lifting if it hurts. So I explained the situation and she says "why dont you let me take a look at it"...after the shock wore off I was like OK and she proceeds to probe my package and abdomen in the training office...interesting night...she found the lump I was describing and told me that my symptoms describe a hernia but that the lump is actually a lymph node...BUT it is severely inflamed for some reason and is about 5x as large as it should be. I wonder if this could be related to my gear? Its the closest node to my glutes?

The reason I am linking/re posting here is bc I have this appointment tomorrow and I wanted to know if there could be any relation to my gear and this large inflamed lymph node? I dont want to say too much if I don't have to bc this is the same doc thats tried to diagnose me with ptsd and I really dont want to give him anymore ammunition. I had a couple bad injections about a week or so ago that came from the last 2ml of a vial of sust. They didn't get hot, didn't abscess, didnt bruise, didnt goose egg.... but I had a sh*t ton of pain which is really unusual. I want this hernia/inflamation/infection problem to get solved bc its killing my training so I dont want them to be on a wild goose chase buuuut I dont exactly want to give this doc anymore reason to fvck with me. Any relation to inflamed lymph nodes and gear?


mods if I wouldn't have reposted here I apologize and will understand any moves/changes

I don't believe there is a relation with the gear. I would tell the doc as little as possible. Let him know what the "RN" found. (hope she was at least hot) and tell him that is why you came to see him. Tell him what the RN thought and leave it at that

Thanks T-MOS and Titanium... I went today and the Doc has no idea whats causing the lymph node infalmation. I do have a inguinal hernia though they arent sure how far its progressed or how bad it is. Theyre making an appointment for me to see a surgeon and determine the next step. They mentioned just monitoring it but then bc of my activity level said surgery may be necessary soon to maintain my lifestyle. This sucks, talk about a bad beat, I'm a little over mid cycle and have been training like a freak. I'm going to rest ths week and go light where I can, no legs either and see where that leaves me until I talk to the surgeon.
