I don't have any health insurance, and i might have cancer.What should I do? I have a lump above my collarbone, about the size of a walnut above my collarbone, and My doctor told me there is a one in five chance that it could be lymphoma cancer. I have an appointment on Monday with a surgeon to take a closer look at it, and give me another diagnosis. I am in my early twenties, and I was foolish enough to think that I could put off getting a health insurance plan for a little longer. Is there anyway I can still get a health insurance plan that I can afford.I make less then 1000 dollars a month. Any info would be much appreciated.

I would suggest contacting your local assisstqnce office, i personally had state insurance due to the fact my job didn't offer it and although it is considered" welfare" they completely covered my chemo therapy, so I am thankful, and it was my first attempt for using social servics. It worth a try.
