Spots on fruit...bacterial canker?

This was my first time growing tomatoes and all was going well, or so I thought, until these spots appeared yesterday on the fruit of 2 cherry tomat.o plant.s (extra periods in there to thwart annoying ad links). I'm growing these indoors under lights. The bottom leaves have been yellowing and dropping off since they were young, but I didn't see any other signs until now. Now the fruit, which I've been waiting forever to ripen, looks like they have chickenpox. :o There are round bumps (blisters?) on the stem. Buds are dropping, blossoms don't even open.

I've looked at tons of pics of bacterial spot, bacterial speck, and bacterial canker. It looks like bacterial canker to me. Can someone please confirm if that's what this is? Do I need to toss them?
