I'm not dying

[manmoor]

Hi All,

Got all my blood tests back today and all is normal. I've been through a hell of a time these past few months with one thing and another and my health anxiety was sky high. Went to the doctor on Tuesday and told her that I was convinced I had cancer in some part of my body as I've had so many symptoms so she did loads of blood tests just to reassure me which was so nice of her not to send me away as has happened so many times in the past when I've went for reassurance. The symptoms I've had these past few months have been so scary and I convinced myself I was seriously ill but it goes to show that it is nothing but anxiety that keeps these symptoms going and I'm so going to try not to dwell on them as much. I've been overwhelmed by the support I've had by pm's msn and texts from my friends here at nmp I love and thank you all for being there for me when times were tough I hope I've also been some help to you.

Thank you Nic for this site and all the support, advice and friends I've made here.



Take Care

Ahhh mandy hun its good to know you are OK I know how you feel, anxiety makes us exaggerate any little symptom in our head, when most, erm, I was going to say 'normal people' lol but that would be wrong...I mean, 'anxiety free' people, would just think 'Ok all it is is a headache/stomach ache etc and dismiss it...
I went through a phase of being paranoid about my headached- I get a lot of tension headaches and have for the past six years now, but I think well if it was something really serious it would have got worse.

Take care chick xx
