My cousin has had a couple lumps that were blocked sweat glands. I hope yours is something equally benign.
Long distance is hard. I've never been particularly good at it. It's hard to feel close to someone when you can't talk face to face (Skype is nice, but not the same), cuddle, ML, hold hands, etc. (I think I have an especially hard time with it because my very primary LL is physical touch.)
Hang in there chica. You guys are building a much stronger and fulfilling R.
