I had the heart palpitations too and had to wear the 24 hour ecg thing, was quite worried about it but none of the doctors seem to be even though it still happens from time to time.

If you're worried about your lump, go see someone! I'm sure they'd rather you go and it be nothing than not go and it be something serious (which I'm sure it won't be ) It could just be a cyst or something? But better to get it checked.

Stress/anxiety can cause all sorts of problems, or at least make little ones worse. I'm not an expert on anything so I'm only guessing

But go see someone, that's what the NHS is there for

My GP's don't want me there...they say "there is nothing wrong with you"

scared to tell them about this - something quite embarrasing...they'd say no, or humiliate me...trust me=/ i've been there for my heart, and my throat, and they say "we've checked all your body systems...and in indirect language, stop coming"

wow! thought i was the only a/s medical applicant to be facing these health issues on top of my competitive year of applying!

=/ how did you make your palpatations go ect?

=/not sure about the lumps, i am sure there are some...but my gp's, after refering me to the throat , and heart, told me , in simple terms, to never come back? i.e i went for stomach aches in my lower stomach, and pains, and mucus in my throat and got told it's anxiety...? to pray, and to visit my p.e teacher for my palpatations?

Get a new GP, and stop making new accounts, you'll just get banned again and again. 2 new accounts in a day would sound impressive to most people, but doubtless for you it's standard procedure.

What sort of extra clubs are people planning on joining once you're in uni?

If i can get into cambridge, i'm gonna join the anime & manga club, and look for a guitar club where i can find band members to play with

I thought I was the only overly-keen one thinking about clubs when I haven't even submitted my application

I was thinking about joining a sport as well as some drama and volunteering stuff. I can play the guitar too so if we get into the same uni we can jam!

Woo! sounds like a plan :P what unis you planning on applying to?
I might take up karate or some sort of martial arts too :O Depends how much free time i get though xD

My favourites are currently Barts and the London, Sheffield, Aberdeen and St Andrews. Hopefully I'll nail the UKCAT!

I'm really worried about the UKCAT, i feel like i'm constantly practising but not improving much, i can't manage to finish the questions in the time limits, i can work out the answers but it takes me too long to figure it out, and it's pretty much like if i mess up the UKCAT i gotta wait another whole year
How's your revision for it going?

I understand the pressure, I really really like Barts and really like Sheffield and both have a cutoff. I haven't started UKCAT revision yet as I'm still revising for some exams (I'm international) My Ukcat's on July 21 and I'm worried about not completing revision on time

Ouch sounds like a pain :/ good luck with your exams, i'm sure you'll do fine
Quick question, how are you going about with dealing with the tuition fees as an international student? Are you going to apply for grants and bursaries? (sorry just interested xD)
