Hi, I'm 33 with a lovely husband and 4 young children. I'm very happy, have a great life However I do have health anxiety. I can be ok for months. In the last 3 years I have been convinced I have had breast cancer, had scan all ok. Cervical and womb cancer, again had tests etc all fine, then stomach cancer, went for endoscopy that my dad actually paid £1500 for as I was so worried. I seem to start off with a little pain which I'm sure is normal, but my brain convinces me it's there and getting worse, then once I have the all clear I feel fine!!!
I am currently worried about bladder cancer. Two weeks ago I got a UTI, not worried, took my antibiotics etc but it never went away, had another lot of antibiotics (both of these were recommended to treat the infection) but I still feel the need to wee all the time. However it is on my mind constantly, and I'm beginning to wonder is I am talking myself into this again. :-( my doctor says my bladder is just irritated and it will go away. But as usual I am freaking out. What is wrong with me, why can't I just have something wrong, have it sorted then move on. I'm worried this will be yet again, months of worry, contant doctor appointments and me so desparate paying out for tests again. I feel like I'm going crazy. When I'm fine, like I said which can be months I dread this moment that a new thing pops into my head as it controls my life and makes me miserable as well as my poor family around me. Any advice in my new worry?? I'm so worried....
