Thank you all for the prayers and reassurance. Our primary doc is out of the office till Monday and neither of her partners considers this any sort of emergency. So he'll see our doc early next week. I'm not thrilled but what I do know is that he had completely normal bloodwork (CBC and CMP) in November, and has no other symptoms. So I am going to take a DEEP breath and just stay calm.

Sounds like lipoma. A previous SO of mine had a lump exactly as you describe, exactly where you describe, and that's what it was. Totally harmless.
I do radiology billing for a living and I can't tell you how many studies cross my desk with a symptom of "mass, lump" etc. Most of the time, the findings are nothing serious at all.
Breathe. Soak in the SI mojo and good vibes. And do keep us posted.

Just saw this HF. I'm so sorry you have to wait until next week to have this checked out. I know it's easier said than done, try to not worry too much. In the meantime hugs and prayers to you both.

HFSSC,
Sending prayers.
FYI,
I was rubbing on my H's chest one night and felt a lump. Near the center, but a little to the right. it was definately in the chest tissue. it was hard, but not bone, and wouldn't move. It wasn't a zit or a cyst. (I'm a pro at those.
) He called the Dr and went in. They did a biopsy. We had to wait for those results. Then when they came back, they said, "We're not sure what it is, but it needs to come out." So he went in about a week later and they cut this thing out. It was round on the top, but had "fingers" or legs that branched down deeper into his tissues. It was really gross! Then they tested that and it came back as some benign growth.
We were really stressed out and worried the whole time and it turned out to be nothing. Hopefully Jm's is nothing too.

The soonest appointment we could get is next Monday. I adore our doc and staff, and I am really okay about this. My dad (also a nurse) looked at it and palpated it and thinks lipoma also. So I am waiting, patiently, but will still feel better after it's "officially" examined.
Thanks so much, y'all. This community means SO much to me.

Thinkng of you guys!!!!
I had something similar years ago. It turned out to be a gland. I didn't even know I had glands there (dr replied....oh yes....they are all over). Seemed like it got big out of no where (one day nothing, next shower it was there).
I was scared to death too.
