Hello everyone,
for the past little while, about 2 months
or so, I have been feeling off. It
started with my heart. It felt like I was
having a hear attack but the doctor in
emergency told me it was most likely
anxiety. I began to get a fever shortly
after but I dismissed this. My chest
muscles began to ache and soon enough I
was getting pain in my body in various
places. It appears that those pains have
gotten better but one and awhile they
return. Im not too familiar with the
symptoms of cancer, however, they seem
quite generic as many diseases share the
same symptoms. I have become quite the
hypocondriac recently, I must admit, as
ive been thinking it was every kind of
cancer I read about along with other
diseases. I have made myself believe I
had cancer so much to the point that I
actually believed without a doubt that it
was definitely what was causing my
symptoms. I have had some blood work done
recently and im awaiting the results.
Could I be overreacting? Im just really
worried
also, I had a small anxiety attack
yesterday worrying about school and what
not, and it was last night when I felt
these symtoms return. The returned after
the axiety passed however so I dont know
if its related. Small little muscle
twitches occur throughout my body
regularly aswell. I like posting on here
for reassurance even if the truth may be
bitter

Hi there automatica. Best thing I can do
is point you to the anxiety forums...There
are many there that deal with physical
stress due to anxiety.
It sounds to me like you are overwhelmed.
When a person is stressed its amazing
what the body will do..Create pains, get
sick...And just get pissed off in
genral.
You awsome for taking the steps you have
ie. Blood work etc...Many people will
just go on there day and not see a
profesional. I wouldnt worry to much
untill you know for sure that you have
something. Stressing this matter will
only make your trip harder.
