Trying to stay calm - does anyone else notice kind of a hard longish knot on the left side, just to the side of the hip bone?

I have those too, don't worry they are just lymph nodes. Mine have gotten swollen off and on since I was a teen.

I'm thinking that it's more like the colon that decends there.

Yes, I have that, but I notice it more on my R side. But have noticed it on my L side as well. I would agree in thinking it is your colon.

I would get that checked out personally.  I draw a line at weird lumps.  Although--I'm sure its nothing.  Keep us posted!
