    You are 100% correct. You explained all my details etc well! Each month I've got a new issue ie one month stabbing pain in groin/balls, then a lump on neck, then a pain somewhere else, paranoid about pooing blood or something, V shaped lumps on back of tongue, now it's muscle twitching in lower right belly with slight sickness feeling... Convinced it's cancer or liver failure etc! Wtf why why why.

      I totally understand. I have imagined I have had evert type of cancer possible. FOr the past 6 years I am totally obsessed with having lung cancer. I had numerous blod tests, urine tests, stress test, checks from family doctor, an xray, the year or so later had ct scan, and another xray 2 weeks ago. Every test came back with good results. After all this i still have health anxiety about cancer. I just want it to stop. I am so exhausted. All suggestions welcome.

      @@sciencetest8 Hi. Same here. Still ongoing. It's a form of OCD I think. I had another blood test today and awaiting results. Still got IBS symptoms as explained above which I forgot I posted about here! To add to Thai I've just had to put my dog down aged 15. The Nusea and stabbing pains come in waves.

    The most sensible advice I have ever heard when it comes to health anxiety and perfectly explained. Only someone who has been through this can understand and pass suggestions on like this. So so grateful you have used your experiences to help others - you have been a sanity saver for me even most therapists I’ve seen don’t totally ‘get’ it because they haven’t been there themselves. They know how it works but they haven’t lived it so their advice falls short of someone you know has (and some).Thank you ❤

    I just spent 10 days thinking I had breast cancer because one of my boobs was hurting, near my armpit. Until I got my period and the pain disappeared over night 😂🙈 I am 40. I should be used to PMS and boob pain 😅

      If you're 40 you should also have had a mammogram by now and that should give peace of mind.

    The awful thing with me is I have health anxiety when I don't even have symptoms. I don't have to have symptoms to think that I have a disease. I have fear a lot of the time for just fear of getting cancer, or some kind of other awful disease. It just won't give me rest. It's constant with me. I hate it.

    I'm living in this loop, where I don't stop googling the symptoms and it gets worse every day. I'm having fasciculations and it's making me feel really bad. I'm just like you, checking my body to see if I haven't had atrophy, wanting answers from doctors, even though my neurologist says it's BFS, he did tests, etc, I can't seem to believe it's just anxiety. Nightmare I have experienced in my life. Your videos have helped me try to forget this problem. We will get better, like you. Thanks for your help ❤

      I had an eye twitch for 8 months… all caused by a really stressful period of my life. It was the eye first and then, everywhere else. It finally went away and hasn’t come back 4 years later. It was anxiety causing it. I have horrible health anxiety and it was horrible while it lasted.

    Yes, that is exactly how it works, not only with health, when ive seen watery trail from my car after returning from shop, first thing i thought is that its loosing cooling fluid, but it was actually from AC, since it also produces liquid, i checked the hood and cooling liquid was fine.

    How do you deal with people saying that if you feel something's wrong, it might be your intuition and the way of your body alarming you about a serious issue? Also with people saying if you feel something's wrong and the doctor says it's fine, advocate for yourself more because many times they miss things or neglect symptoms? This is the most difficult part for me.

      @beyond_words_dance Місяць тому

      Me too…I struggle with that. I guess it’s a matter of time. I’ve found that some symptoms subside when I do the above. Also having faith in your doctor and not reading aaaallll the stuff online around doctors missing something. Sometimes they do but it’s rare. Most of them are thorough ❤

    I am in the middle of it, Had dent on my left leg suggesting of Atrophy, hyperreflexia 3+ on left leg only, speech problem. Had MRI done and unfortunately it was normal, next is EMG on this Tuesday may be. I don't know this is just anxiety or real ALS, if any one here had similar symtoms and that didn't get to MND or ALS, please tell me otherwise google has confirmed it that i have ALS

    • @hollydaugherty2620
      @hollydaugherty2620 Місяць тому

      "Unfortunately" your MRI was normal? What kind of statement is that? People with cancer would be pissed to read that. You should be glad it was normal and focus on therapy for your health anxiety. Google can't confirm anything and neither can you. Nothing you described is concerning or suggestive of ALS.

    I have IBS but always gets worse when I convince myself it’s colon cancer. Googling ruined my life and I cannot get it back together. 6 months dealing with gut issues and constant change in bowel habits and I don’t know what to do anymore. IBS and anxiety together are ruining my life.

      If you've had constant change in bowel habits you should've gotten a colonoscopy anyway and that would in turn fix your colon cancer anxiety.
