Seriously - lumps under the armpit are not something to ignore. Please get her to the doctor ASAP.My wife doesn’t want to get the vaccine just yet because the risks outweigh the benefits (in her mind).
She looks at the relative absence of the virus in our community and sees the vaccine as the greater of two evils (at this time). To me, it’s ludicrous given her chronic asthma, and I’m quite sure that a doctor would giver her an alternative strategy.
Having said all of that, she’s currently avoiding seeing a doctor regarding some lumps under her armpits because……wait for it…. “It could be something bad”.
So, instead of finding out what it is and getting treatment, she spends her time worrying about the possibility of this unknown cause, whilst also avoiding a vaccine because it also “could” be bad….
Irrational and illogical? Most certainly.
Now, if you lived in certain parts of India, you’d more than likely be prepared to ”take your chances” (I’m facepalming as I type those words) with the vaccine.
She is assuming it is something bad - well it might be, in which case the sooner she gets treatment the better. If it isn't, then she will be able to sleep at night. Both outcomes are better than where she is now worrying about the possibilities and not getting treatment.
So many conditions are treatable when caught early, but not if ignored.
