I think i have Klinefelters syndrome

Question

Hi, im an 18 year old male.  about 4 months ago, i started to develop a lump under my nipple.  fearing it was cancer, i started doing research.  i dont have much facial or body hair, i am extremely under weight, i have difficulties reading and writing, unassertive, and i get confused by others for gay bc im too sensitive.  im extremely terrified of needles and embarassed to go to a doctor, so im holding back on getting a blood test.  any help please?

According to something i saw on the discovery health channel, i think it was mystery er, people with klinefelters syndrome have extremely small testicles. If thats the case with you, I'd suggest you go ahead and get the blood test, if not i think you can pretty much rule it out.

It's really important that you get checked out for this.  I know you said you're embarrassed & afraid of needles, but sometimes we just have to screw up our courage and go to the doctor.  I have the "female" verison of this-- Turner Syndrome.  I was 47 years old before they made the diagnosis.  That's waaaayyy too long to wait.

Discussions By Condition: I cannot get a diagnosis.
