Ive been going through a really tough time with my health anxiety recently, mainly with fears of breast lumps. I 'discovered' a dimple when i tense my arm (don't ask!!) and its been driving me mad. Today i decided enough was enough and went to my gp. She was really lovely and checked me over - thankfully no lumps but although she isin't overly concerned about my dimple she thinks i should keep an eye on it now that i've found it. I have to check it once a week, no feeling just looking!! - what a challenge for someone like me!!
I guess most 'normal' people wouldn't have even spotted it let alone gone to their docs about it oh the joys of h.a.!!
Back on beta blockers and still waiting for CBT.
Please send me some 'no obsessivley checking vibes!'

Hi Anx,

Have to agree with Andrea, so no obsessively checking vibes winging their way to you.

Hugs to you

Hi!

I'm sending you millions of vibes! DON'T CHECK COMPULSIVELY!

I'm overcomming similar problems regarding worries over other illnesses and I'm finding it hard today myself, but I'm not giving into some stupid thought, and neither should you!

Good luck with the therapy, I'm in the middle of CBT myself, trust me it works wonders!

Big hugs!
